Injured Pink-striped Oakworm Moth

Hi all,

I found this poor baby on the floor of my apartment complex, and couldn’t bear to leave it there to get squished by the people who walk around not paying attention.

I don’t know much about moths, but from what I found researching online- he/she? is inside a box (with ventilation) in a dim lit space and the tissue has a 9:1 sugar-water solution. Is there anything I can do to help/ will it be able to recover?
