Some drink nectar, some eat nothing, a few pierce fruit or (in a couple tropical species) skin to drink the juice or blood. A lot of them prefer just drinking moisture from puddles. Butterflies are often attracted to sweat, urine, rotten fruit, and feces (especially anglewings and admirals). When I collect moths, the bait I use is beer, brown sugar, apple sauce, rotten bananas, Molasses, and yeast; they love it! the caterpillars eat leaves, burrow into wood, or (in rare cases) are predatory on smaller insects. There are also some that eat fungus, lichens, dead leaves (litter moths), grains, and cloth (clothes moths).
