A larva typically attacks the first part of the plant it encounters, namely the stem, often of a seedling, and consequently cuts it down; hence the name cutworm.
The larvae of G. mellonella are also often used as a model organism in research. The greater wax moth is well known for its parasitization of honeybees and their hives. [1] [2] Because of the economic loss caused by this species, several control methods including heat treatment and chemical fumigants such as carbon dioxide have been used. [3]
