Product Information

Currently unavailable. The cream spot tiger is a strikingly colourful insect that is widespread across the southern counties of England and Wales. Like many of our tiger moths the larvae have eclectic tastes, feeding on a wide variety of low growing plants and shrubs, such as nettle, plantain etc., and are typically brown and hairy in appearance. Whilst not occurring to the same degree as the garden tiger, the adult is also noted for considerable variation. There is one brood per year (more in artificial conditions) and eggs and larvae are available in June.

Larval foodplants: nettle (urticae), plantain (plantago) and many other low growing plants and shrubs.

Rearing: plastic boxes and flowerpot cages.
