It is actually fairly small, < 12mm. It has very short pectinate antenna. I wonder if it is a Psychid? Shape looks quite like Trigonocyttara clandestina although I think that sp. is much bigger than this moth. I am still looking.

Yes. it was simply my best suggestion based apparently on a squared off abdomen and a transverse white band visible in the 5th image - although I suspect that 5th image is a view from the underside. Yes, I have been looking without success. P. carbo does not have forewings with trailing margins with a feathery fringe.

@WendyEM Looking up Isodontia sp. (genus) seems likely some of the nests were 1M off the ground and i couldn't imagine how a caterpillar would be able to carry the grass up to the hole.
