Caterpillar

There are three common caterpillars which choose brassicas as their source of food: Cabbage Moth; Large Cabbage White and Small Cabbage White. The most common one is the Small Cabbage White Butterfly and it certainly does the most damage in its caterpillar stage. This damage occurs between April and October because each of the varieties has two or more generations strecthing from Spring to Autumn. Caterpillars generally live on vegetable matter - ie leaves, flowers, stems, roots, tubers etc. so they are seen as a severe garden pest that have to be controlled. Apart from the tedious task of picking these caterpillars off by hand, there are several natural methods of control.
