Campion Moth (Hadena rivularis) - larva

The caterpillars crawl into the seed heads of our Red Campion, and eat the seeds inside, before moving on to the next one. Nice and easy for the early instars but more of a squeeze when you get this big! The campions do have a habit of taking over so this natural control is very handy.
