<<Wax moths can survive up to six months in protected situations, so it is more likely than they are overwintering than that they migrate.
> Which wax moth are you thinking of?
Greater wax moth. Jon L. Williams writing in Honey Bee Pests & Predators states that when they are on a marginal diet, they can live for six months. By the way, the resulting adults are smaller.
> Dietary restriction (DR) has the remarkable ability to extend lifespan and healthspan. A variety of DR regimens have been described in species ranging from yeast to mammals. -- Greer, E. L., & Brunet, A. (2009). Different dietary restriction regimens extend lifespan by both independent and overlapping genetic pathways in C. elegans. Aging cell, 8(2), 113-127.
