Egg Eggs of common fan-foot may be laid in clusters on the underside of leaves of host plants. To find them, inspect these areas carefully using a magnifying lens.
Larva Larvae of common fan-foot can often be found on or near their food plants. Look for signs of feeding, such as chewed leaves, and search both the upper and undersides of leaves.
Pupal Common fan-foot pupae might be in the soil, leaf litter, or in cocoon structures attached to plants or other surfaces. Search these areas gently to avoid disturbing them.

Hurt Plant

When common fan-foot feeds on oak trees, it primarily chews on plant tissues. This lepidopteran's larvae extensively consume leaves, flowers, and fruits, leading to defoliation, damaged floral structures, and compromised fruit development. The destruction of foliage reduces photosynthesis, weakening the plant and making it vulnerable to secondary infections or environmental stress.
