RMG6DDJ1–Richard Turner takes a closer look at Yponemeuta Padella, or ermine moth caterpillars which have weaved an intricate web over a roadside hawthorn hedge and speed sign in Catherington near Portsmouth. * The phenomenon would have begun last August when the larvae would have been laid in the hedge but have only just come to the attention of passers by as they create the web as protection while they devour the buds and leaves. Experts say that in June the moths will mature and mate before dying two weeks later. The eerie sight has become a fascination to locals and passing drivers.
