I feel sure this is a Clothes Moth and this one caught my eye. MPG shows them in Maryland ane Vermont and you are on the way to those two. Also, June was the fly month. I also looked at Antispila hydrangaeella - Hodges#0243 but there are no pictures on BG for it and it has not been seen as far East or North. I did not go through all of them.

I'm amazed how similar those genera are even though they're in different families. I'm hoping this will get an ID to genus eventually.
