What does the american dagger moth caterpillar eat?
Hello! I work at a camp, and one of the kids I work with (6) found one and put it in a cup with another cup on top with tape to seal it and holes cut in the top. Luckily, she did not touch in this process. Throughout the day she kept it, and even ended up naming it violet. Concerned due to its bright color and spikes, I ended up looking it up near the end of the day to make sure it was safe since she wanted to take it home. Finding out it species, I advised her against it and told her why. She was upset, but ended up not keeping it after finding out it was a bit dangerous. Since we were on a bus, I decided to keep the little caterpillar over night, and free it at camp the next day so it stayed where it belonged. However, overnight the caterpillar cocooned itself in the container I moved it to. (which-awesome!!! So excited still because that was today!!) I had put the caterpillar in a decent sized food container with holes on top, and put some dirt and a tuft of grass with its roots still attached in the container. I added a stick and a oak leaf from the tree in my back yard. There was also a paper cup in the container which is one of the cups she was originally in, because she had webs inside and I wasn’t sure if she needed them. I looked up her species, and find that they eat leaves from Alder, Ash, Elm, Maple, Oak, Willow and other hardwood trees. Another site said they also eat bark from these trees, hence the stick just in case. I’ve used a paint brush to put some water about the container to keep the dirt and leaves moist, but have been avoiding her cocoon entirely because I don’t want to kill her by getting it wet. Other than this, I guess the best thing is to just wait and see what happens in a few months!
