Chinook thanks for both these comments. Certainly learning about preventative maintenance these last couple weeks. Much appreciated!How would DE powder get rid of caterpillar in buds? It would be all through your bud, no thanks! I am not sure it will even kill cats.
If cats are that bad expect a bunch of mold as they curl up in buds and eat and poop, then the mold comes. Use some green cure to help stop mold. It will limit your loss but expect it. Best thing is prevention!

easy product for BT is mosquito bits, monterey or bonide. I think all different strains. But all effective and easy, safe, etc. to add to @Chinook3 comment. Is a reason its the most popular one in the world.Yes a product called "BT" bacillus Thuringia. You can use it right up until harvest. Spray twice a week as the sunlight will break it down. The worms eat it and die. Turns in their stomachs to something fatal to catapillars. Otherwise pretty safe. Should use it throughout grow season. It's cheap and effective.

Hey guys!
I know it's a long shot but does anyone have a solution for caterpillar infestation in outdoor buds? This girl is about 4 weeks from harvest and she is inundated!
Thanks, strongly considering the screen box for next year's outdoor grow.Pretty easy, pull open buds at nodes first find, then; follow the trails of poop. If you see even a brown wilting sugar leaf inspect closer, when your buds become bigger you will notice brown dead spots that will reveal a trail to the cata-pilla' the trail will be lined with mold causing poop that must be cleaned out. Little bastards. Un avoidable unless you create a sealed enviroment. One time i built a huge box out of 2x4's and covered it with window screen. Not a single bud-a-pilla'. Good luck and stay vigilant
Heres a cheaper idea...cats crawl up the plant or fall out of the sky? Ive seen cats fall off trees. So maybe move the pots or plot to different location.Thanks, strongly considering the screen box for next year's outdoor grow.
