My most problematic worm-producing Lepidoptera here
are skippers (3 species) and cabbage butterflies (3 species),
both are checking-out the garden now;
but I won't spray 'till I see the first tiny new hatchling,
basking in the morning sun--
not hungry, having just consumed it's egg case...
============================================
If the worms eat Bt or Spinosid they die, right???
I thought immunity is passed-on by the parents,
but none of the adults came from here;
they're all from someplace else,
all the larvae are eradicated here each year--
I'm confused <per usual Heh>...

How does that work here???I alternate because I don't want anything to build resistance.
