Hi Devin,
You don't say where you're writing from, but looking at old emails of yours
I'm going to assume you're still in Vermont? Given that this is a tropical
moth species, I'm actually shocked it could make it through a Vermont
winter, even with climate change. Not that iNaturalist is conclusive, but
I'm not seeing any logged spottings for Eudocima phalonia. The caterpillars
are quite distinctive so that should provide conclusive ID if you see them
at that stage.
I found a USDA screening aid on them (they have arrived in TX), but was not
able to find IPM information for areas where they've been introduced.

There is an Open Access paper on their presence in New Caledonia and it
goes into IPM a bit. https://www.mdpi.com/2075-4450/12/2/117/html
