Anyone any advice for dealing with caterpillar eating my broccoli and
sprouts?!? Don't particularly want something to kill 'em (unless that's
all I can do!), but would like them to not be eating me veg!

Tony.

Cats can be trained to catch the white butterflies that lay the eggs
that hatch into the caterpillars.
One summer I got my mother a new kitten, aged about 6 weeks old, from
the SPCA (in New Zealand), and it wasn't long before, watching me clap
my hands half the day to catch those butterflies, the kitten was depositing
a mat full of them for me to admire it and thank it for.

ROFL - I'm afraid that IMO cats would be worse than caterpillars... ;-)
