I am new to growing vegetables, and have always wanted to grow Spouts. The
problem is the caterpillars. Every day I am removing dozens of them and
still it looks like I'm fighting a losing battle.

There has to be a more effective way of preventing them, and controlling
tem, but I do not want to use chemicals!

I would be very grateful for some advice.

Used to be able to buy a bacteria in a sachet (BCH?) that made a spray that
if the little devils ate any they got infected and died. Took a few days to
work, but work it did.
Probable not allowed now.
