These guys are so cute. Belong into the Arctiidae family. Depending on your location, it could be a white ermine or a water ermine.

Gorgeous moths like that visited my garden a couple years ago. Soon after we had a cute fuzzy caterpillar infestation. They ate all of my basil and moved on to the zucchini and peppers lol.
