Green worms SOUND like caterpillars.* Do they have "legs."* If
so, they're caterpillars, and a spray or powder of Bacillus
thuriengensis (BT) will do the job.* Any garden center sells BT
sprays.* If no legs, they're something else, probably the larvae
of some critter.* A pesticide containing pyrethrums will do the
job.* I've sprayed Bougainvilleas with Pyrethrums and have seen
no damage.* Again, garden centers will have something.

My english is not the best one around.I knew the pest,but didn't knew the
name!
