Also known as garden tiger moth, it is a widely distributed moth species in Europe and Asia, also found in North America. It is named "caterpillar" because of its bright orange and black markings on the adults and the long, dense black and ginger yellow hair covering the larvae. Active during the summer months of July to August, especially in shrub covered sand dunes, forest edges, wetland grasslands, parks, and gardens. Larvae mainly feed on nettles, soursop, and other garden plants, which provide a rich source of food. Adults feed on nectar and fly at night, possessing a protective coloration to warn predators of their unpleasant taste. It can also generate harsh sounds by rubbing its wings to resist natural enemies
