Grrrr....cabbage whites....
"Janet" wrote in message t... In article , says... Lots of cabbage whites in the garden today. I was toying with the idea of a butterfly net in an attempt to resolve the problem. Careful examination of the broccoli heads reveal the eggs. They do rinse off with a bit of effort but it's a slow process and my previous love of broccoli is waning. On the flower heads? They usually lay the eggs close together in a postage stamp sized patch on the underside of a leaf. I just tear out that small patch. The hole you leave won't kill the leaf, it's nothing to the ones the caterpillars would have made. Janet. Yes on the flower heads. they are dotted about at random not in a grid like formation. mark |
