Those bug lights (that everyone probably knows are useless for getting rid of mosquitoes) actually do a decent job of killing the moths that produce the stinging nettle caterpillars. We have had far fewer since installing the light. The moths are a grayish brown and about the size of a dime. Ti plants do indeed seem to be a favorite of the nasty things, and I have even found them on the wild "bamboo" orchids and heliconia.
