Carrot leaves. I find the caterpillars in my carrots sometimes. I just
let them eat. They don't kill any plants and they don't seem to eat
enough to diminish the final harvest enough to notice.
Swallowtails like *everything* in the parsley/dill/carrot family.
AFAIK, they don't pollinate much -- they just eat like chainsaws! Very
attractive, however, both as caterpillars and butterlflies.
