The Io moth is a colourful moth from North America. Its adults are striking, with large eyespots on their wings. Its green caterpillars carry spines that release a very painful venom, so they should be left alone.1

The spines of the green caterpillars release a very painful venom at the slightest touch. Contact is not life-threatening to humans, but it irritates the skin and causes an acute skin inflammation called erucism.1

Mfundo

1

The caterpillars' spines are urticating, meaning they can cause a stinging reaction on contact.1

2

Adults live only 1 to 2 weeks and do not eat during this stage.1

3

After emerging from the cocoon, adults inflate their furled wings with fluid pumped from the body, which takes about twenty minutes.1

4

Females attract males by releasing wind-borne scent chemicals (pheromones) from a gland at the end of the abdomen.1

5

Many flies and wasps are parasitoids of this moth, laying their eggs in or on it.1
