'Waved sphinx moth' is the common name of 'Ceratomia undulosa'. The moth is so called because of the wavy black and white lines that its forewings sport. The colors are intended to blend with the tree bark on which the moth likes to rest. They may or may not blend with the house fronts where they tend to keep company with other moths that are drawn to outside house lights.
Insecticidally with non-organic or organic treatments and manually by hand or through hosing are ways to control the caterpillar stage of the waved sphinx moth, Ceratomia undulosa. Non-organic treatments include garden insecticides with the active ingredients carbaryl, permethrin or spinosad while organic applications involve Bacillus thuringiensis var. kurstaki. But the larval stage rarely poses problems to such preferred food and host plants as ash, fringe-tree, hawthorn, lilac, oak, and privet.
