Hi DG, can anyone help identify this little chap that i found behind my washing basket on my carpet today, ive never seen anything like it but he was about 1cm long, 0.5cm wide. It looked like a larvae maybe - i havent much experience here so i cant be sure but it had huge shiny black eyes on the front and its body was covered in orange hairs and black underneath?
This is a very dead and desiccated moth caterpillar; it likely had accidentally wandered inside, where it starved to death and then completely dried up.
