Cabbage whites
« on: May 24, 2012, 16:00 »
Spotted my first cabbage white butterflies today... I haven't finished netting my sprouts yet, should I panic? The answer's probably yes, so if it is... will any eggs be visible to the naked eye?

Yes little cluster of eggs either yellow or whitish on the undersides of the leaves usually.

The one that's harder to see is the small cabbage white, who lays eggs singly  :(
