The best rule of thumb to use about what moths eat is that they will eat anything that dissolves in water. They will also mostly feed on nectar from flowers.
Moths do not typically eat algae as their primary food source. Moths usually feed on plant nectar, sap, or other plant materials. While some moth species may accidentally consume algae if it is found near their feeding areas, it is not a common part of their diet.
Lots of nocturnal animals eat moths. This includes bats, spiders, and some birds. As for what moths eat, 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. 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).
Moths are primarily herbivores, feeding on nectar, sap, and other plant materials. Some species may also consume fruits, fungi, and animal products such as carrion or dung. Overall, moths are not considered omnivores as their diet mainly consists of plant-based foods.
