Default Is there an organic pesticide that can kill caterpillars on thyme?

In article , says...
What is BT? I am from Mauritius, a small island in the Indian Ocean, I am
not sure that I have heard of this.


Bacillus thuringiensis var Kurstaki or BT for caterpillars is a bacteria that
only effects the caterpillar. It causes them to quit eating once consumed and
can be used up to day of harvest. You might contact Veejai Ahluwalia at
located in Mumbai. He may be able to have a better chance
of knowing if it can be found in your part of the world.
