Hi guys,i'm from italy and i had a bad experience to raise polyphemus silk moth.
I used the silver birch ( Betula pendula) but i obteined a great loss and small adults.
Which host plant do you use?
I was thinking about some american trees like silver maple ( A.saccharinum), red oak ( Quercus rubra) and paper birch ( Betula papyrifera).
These ones are very common here like ornamental trees ( except Betula papyrifera)
Thank you.
Giacomo
