That's REALLY funny. I have a "friend" named Ted who also raises moths!! I don't know his last name....

Believe me, I get assked about those particular moths ALL of the time (THe Death's Head Sphinx - Achertonia atropos.

However, in the movie, due to excessive U.S. regulation, they couldn't use that actual species (our gov't would not let them import them), so they had to use a local moth and use painted "press on nails" to get the proper pattern!
