| | | Unidentified Eggs?
A bit of a long shot I know but can anyone have a stab at identifying these eggs that were found on the outside of the perspex on the moth trap last Saturday morning.

They look like shield bugs but I could be wrong.
Some have photographed them hatching on WAB.. 
oops..looking closer they look more like snail/slugs lol

I suspect they are from a moth. Snails and slugs lay egg masses quite different to this and usually under rocks, logs open earth etc. Shieldbug eggs are a different shape. |
