Moths

Caring for pet moths can be rewarding, but they have specific needs that make them different from other pets. First, consider their short lifespan; some moth species, like the beautiful Luna Moth, live only a week as adults. Popular choices include the Atlas Moth, Luna Moth, and Cecropia Moth, each with unique sizes, colors, and patterns. While all moths require a habitat that mimics nature, they differ in environmental needs, such as humidity and temperature. Some species thrive in moderate conditions, while others need warmer, more humid environments.
Moths as pets are low-maintenance, but they require a peaceful, enclosed space where they can safely move without risking injury. Their diet also varies; many adult moths don’t eat at all, while larvae might need specific leaves. Be prepared for their fragile nature; moths are delicate, so handle them gently and consider how to protect them from household risks.
