Starting to notice little caterpillers on my flowering plants.

This morning i noticed a few really small caterpilllers scattered in my garden.

My plants are from week 1-3 of flowering.


My backyard has a history of these bud eating worms.


Any advice on what i can use to kill them and prevent them from coming back.

Anything with B.T. in it. This is a must for anyone growing outside and dosent want to let caterpillers destroy their crop!

Safer Caterpillar Killer with BT is a good brand. Good luck

Spinosad FTW

The bud worm thread has been locked to the top of the Outdoor section for at least two years. All the info you can imagine can be found in its 700+ posts.

Sevin works too.

dont use seven ever..i use spinosad effectively and you can also follow veggiegardeners advice and peep the bud worm thread

Read the fuckin sticky!!!!!

hahaha I was just messin with ya man....I mean yea, look around, but no one really minds answering questions like that, I was not attacking you personally, I know you know that cause you "liked" my otherpost haha, it's all good man..peace!!

For every one worm you find there are three more snacking on your buds. These worms are my arch nemesis. You better spring into action quick and start spraying.

Spinosad for sure. Do not go with BT alone. If you do go with BT at all mix with distilled water or at least water that sits a couple days so the chlorine does not kill the BT.
