Thanks Danny! Now I will know, I shall keep the weeds this moth feeds on, we have a lot of caterpillars in June, now they are all gone. Moths only love in my front garden, I never see such moth in my back garden, don't know why. Very endemic? My friend lives round the corner and they do not have such moths in their garden, they have a lot of wild spaces around the house but no such moth. We have them every year.
