Have you heard of the plastic eating caterpillar who could eat through waste? Well if you haven't here's some information about it. Researchers at Cambridge University have discovered that the larvae of the moth can eat the wax in beehives. Can you believe it? Experiments show that the insect can break down the chemical bonds of plastic in a similar way to digesting beeswax. However, caterpillars of the moth can make holes in plastic bags within an hour.
