This video tutorial teaches how to find and recognize red admiral eggs and caterpillar nests on one of its larval host plants, stinging nettle. If you live in the Western U.S. and do decide to go on a caterpillar hunt and handle stinging nettle, always wear rubber gloves for obvious reasons. Also, if red admirals use other nettles in your area, you will be able to apply lessons learned from this video as search false nettle, pellitory, hops, etc.
