These insects are found predominantly in eastern Russia, northern China and some parts of northern Japan. During the summer, there is a strong possibility they will lay eggs on visiting ships which will then inadvertently carry them to other parts of the world. The problem is that in their larval stage, when they look like caterpillars, the moths are big eaters of all types of plant leaves. The USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Chile and Argentina are thus particularly concerned at the damage Asian gypsy moths might cause to their major forestry and fruit industries.
