The kids were playing in the backyard the other day. Kids (my daughter and her friend) and the puppy dog Pochi who is almost 3 months old was with them and playing in the yard, too! As the girls were busy playing, Pochi delivered them a surprised, a LUNA MOTH! The girls thought it was a typical big butterfly.
When I saw it, I knew it was different, never seen anything liked it before. My daughter was very happy to see a “big butterfly” which I was doubtful. Hubby came home, our daughter took him to show the what she believed was a butterfly. Hubby immediately said, it is not a butterfly, don’t touch or hold it as it may not be safe.
Fortunately, he has his smart phone and got on Google to search for it. There, it shows that it was a LUNA Moth. So pretty, so big! Now, I knew what it was and will not be worried of touching it next time. We had been a residents of this house for seven years but it was the only first time that we saw that kind of moth.
Some info about LUNA moth:
Life Cycle- In the northeastern United States around New Jersey or New York, the moths produce two generations each year. The first of these appear in April and May, and the second group can be seen approximately nine to eleven weeks later. In the southern United States, there can be as many as three generations. These are spaced every eight to ten weeks beginning in March.
Eggs- Female Luna Moths lay 100–300 eggs, 4–7 eggs at a time, on the underside of leaves, and they incubate for eight to thirteen days. The moths will lay more eggs in a favorable climate.

Moving them is impossible because of it’s gigantic sizes and heavy metal weight. But, cleaning the machinery is a must; to make the production run smoothly. This is to avoid for the grease to accumulate that can cause the machine to slow down. Industrial parts washers are used to clean large and unique parts without the need to move or disassemble the machine.
