Default Damned caterpillars!

Had a look at the sprouts yesterday, and they had caterpillars on them!

How the hell can I stop that?

Get some Stergene, used for washing woollens, mix with water and put into a
hand sprayer, spray sprouts. Make sure you spray into all nooks and
crevices. You may have to repeat the process a couple of times.
