Try putting cedar chips/bark around your plants. $3 or $4 for a 2 cubic foot bag from Home Depot, Walmart, etc. Now that they are infested, I would use a liberal dose of organic insecticidal soap.

use a biological, Bacillus Thuringensis (sp ?) AKA BT. the caterpillars eat the bacteria infected leaves and die. Any good garden center should have it and it will last for years if you keep it refrigerated.

those fuclers just ate all my lettuce and oregano on my blacony! How the hell they got up there I dont know. I shook my tomatoes and a bunch fell out. None on the weed thank god. That is inside. Wonder if copper can help? I cut theri head off. These were little green and almost whitish ones. I am so pissed off at the annoying kingdom.
