The message
from Monty Chatu contains these words:

Hi

Sorry for the post's but I have just bought a house with my 1st garden,
so
it's all a bit new! What effective, and environmental friendly methods,
can
people recommend for controlling these critters?

What kind of caterpillars do you want to control, in a new garden ?
In the UK there are very few caterpillars around at this time of year.

Janet

Had them all winter here (on the cabbages) in Somerset. :-((

Even the so-called cold snaps didn't get shot of them!!

What did the caterpillars on your cabbages look like?
