While most species are harmless, some moths can cause damage inside the home and in the garden.

The winter moth caterpillar is a smooth, green inchworm that has a narrow white stripe running lengthwise on each side of its body.

There are many kinds of beetles, some are beneficial and some do serious damage to plants.

Mid-spring (around late April) is the time to apply sticky barrier bands around trees, about 2-4 feet above the ground.

Good housekeeping can prevent them. But should they get in, there are ways to get rid of them.
