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?


The environmentally friendly thing to do is to set aside 20% of your
cabbages specifically for the caterpillars.
Then, go around the other 80% and carefully, carefully I said,
transfer all the caterpillars that you find to the conservation area.
What a joy it is to have someone in the group who cares.
