[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 369971, member: 3444"] Hand-picking the caterpillars is really the best way, unfortunately. Maybe there are some neighbor kids who you could "employ" to do the job. Say, 25 cents for each one they collect? And they get to keep the bug! We had a roadrunner one year that took care of the problem for us :) I would watch it perched on the tomato stake staring intently at the plants, then it would suddenly dart down and come up with a fat, juicy caterpillar!
