I found this guy crawling around my living room! I put him on the dill, no sale. Then the milkweed - not interested.
Caterpillar Id please
Peggy, since he's pretty large already and he's wandering around, it might be just looking for a place to pupate. It's not a "common" butterfly cat or we would recognize it so it might be a moth. If it's a moth it will make a cocoon in some leaves or debris etc or bury itself under the dirt. If it's a butterfly it will just go make a chrysalis. Without positive ID you aren't going to know what to do with it so you might just leave him outside to do his thing.
I think moth as well. Put it in some leaf litter in a container with air holes and let us know what comes out in a few weeks
Thanks Donna and KK. He had other plans, and left... but he did look big enough to take care of himself, didn't he - wish I still had him.
