I've noticed these small clumps of brown stuff around my back porch for a while, but always figured it was just mud or something. Today i took a closer look and realized that these are patches of eggs, and some have what look to be larvae hatching from them.
Could these be butterfly or moth larvae? They are very tiny, and there are probably 8-12 similar patches all around my back porch, stuck to the siding on the house.
I apologize for the pictures not being very clear- it's cloudy out today (no sun for lighting), and my camera isn't great at picking up such tiny things.
