Default Who is this on my property?

These are all over my verbatums. Not bothered as they are as attractive
as the plant, especially now the flowers are over. However I would love
to know. The colouring in mainly yellow , black and white horizontal
stripes.

Did you post a pic with this? If so, it hasn't come through. If not, could you give us a few more clues? Size? legs? Wings?

My apologies for failing to post the link. Having looked up Mullein
Moth, you are correct Rod, that is indeed it. They certainly add colour
to the plant now the flowers have gone!
