How to make lime and sand morter for old brick?
If you click the source link you'll see that Lime Hawk caterpillars eat a few things, so you could release them onto a Lime tree or a Birch, Alder or Elm. They won't just eat any old plant though! As to the gestation period, Lime Hawks are a member of the Sphingidae family of moths. The eggs of these moths vary a lot in their gestation time, but it's roughly in the range of 3 - 21 days. There is a book available on rearing Hawkmoths: Breeding the British and European Hawk-moths - P. Sokoloff but it might be hard to get hold of these days. Hope you are successful, they are amazing moths!
