Actually, moths are moths, they don't turn into anything.
You could do a google search entering a description of the moth to find out what kind it is. Maybe this website will help.

Just watch out it doesn't start laying eggs on your plants Glenda. It's the caterpillars that do all the damage!!

It may be a wooly bear moth. I just got a new insect book-go Ken Kaufman.
