 :( grrr;  2 sneaked under the edge of my netting in my nursery bed at home and 'did the naughty' as my teenager told me!  Now having to rub eggs off all my leaves.  Will have to buy more tent pegs  :wub: 

There's loads on the lottie a half mile away.  Liking your butterflypest-slayer DD, but our guinea pigs not up for much bar trying to find a blade of grass or two out there, and doing 'the pancake pig' when it get hot.  Pets huh?

Every time I go to the plot there a few flying around. Just spend a bit of time rubbing off the eggs before I go home. All the plants that they are targeting are comming on a treat now.
