Full StoryI decided with enough hosing off of milkweed bugs I could use the swamp milkweed I planted to feed my cats. Those plants are pretty disgusting, but underneath all the bugs there are plenty of healthy looking leaves. Which is good, because I brought in 20 eggs, which are now caterpillars busy munching away. There are still a few larvae out in the garden, mostly pretty small, but I also discovered one giant caterpillar on my incarnata. I have my fingers crossed for him! I didn't want to bring him in for fear of contaminating something, or bringing in a lot of milkweed bugs to infest my cage.
The only remaining problem is figuring out how to move the cats from the individual leaves to big branches in water. I would like to do that now that they are getting bigger. I would be interested to know how other people transfer them. Last year, I used straight pins to attach the leaves the cats were on, onto leaves on the branches. Call it the seamstress solution!
