Introduction (Back to Top). The cactus moth, Cactoblastis cactorum Berg (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) arrived in 1989 in the Florida Keys, and this invasive species has become a serious threat to the diversity and abundance of Opuntia cactus in North America (Zimmermann et al.2001, Stiling 2002).ater, the cactus moth was introduced into Hawaii, India, South Africa, and a few Caribbean islands for this same purpose. In early 2009, the cactus moth was found and quickly eradicated in Mujeres, Mexico about 10 miles offshore from Cancun (LSU 2009).
