So remember when we were kids chasing those little yellow and white ā€œbutterfliesā€?
Well, they are moths, and are hell on certain garden plants. They flit around looking for brassicas~ broccoli, cauliflower, brussels sprout, collards, kale, etc, and lay their devil’s seed. The egg hatches into tiny green caterpillars which grow fast by eating the leaves of my plants. By the time the little bugger is almost an inch long, it will have the leaf stripped to a skeleton. I lost all of my brussels sprouts to them last year, but am waging war this year. I refuse to use insecticides, so I scoot along on my garden stool inspectecting each leaf on every targeted plant. Tedious, and an everyday chore. Probably should get some of that netting we used at the farm. Here’s a caterpillar attacking a brussel sprout plant:View attachment 1863965

But I found a new ally in the garden. And I am revising my hatred of yellowjackets. I found this guy eating one of tjose little devils~View attachment 1863976
