How to Deter Cabbage Butterflies

How to deter cabbage butterflies and/or cabbage moths from laying eggs and destroying your Cole crops (cabbages, kale, collards, etc).

  1. You can try making decoys. I’m not sure this actually works though. I need to find a better way to test it.
  2. Creating a hoop structure with bug netting is probably your best option. I put a video on YT showing a build yesterday.
  3. You could also use B.t. which is an organic bacterial option that only targets caterpillars.
