This video was a lot of hard work to make while getting all the shots and using macro lens to catch the true essence of subject. Hope you all enjoy :)

[@iqraiftikhar]

I just noticed these holes, on the leaves, of my radish plant today!
It's next to my other plants, however, they are unaffected. Will this spread, to different types of vegetable plants?
(Also, my radish plant has just started flowering, so this means, that it's happy, right?)
Would placing crushed eggshells, on top of all of the soil, in my container plants, prevent this pest, from travelling, to my other plants, which are in close proximity, to my radish plant?
Thank you, (in advance!), for your response!

[@debbiejackson7846]

Excellent job! Thank you so much! Ordered BT and DE this morning! Corn meal is a great tip!!

[@DaisyCreekFarms]

Eggs shells may deter some insects but mostly they don't work against pests. Other plants might get affected as well. You want to pull and eat radishes before they flower.

[@DaisyCreekFarms]

DE works with hard body insects with outer shell only and it doesn't work if DE gets wet.

[@pinkfield2472]

very nice work

[@kathryncastanares525]

These cabbage worms and the butterfly/moth is just as sneaky. We have one that will come by, see us in the garden and fly off to the field nearby. Once we leave the garden we watch the sucker come back and quickly lay its eggs. My daughter picked a leaf with one of the worms on them and when i picked it up from her the worm went to the nearest crease of the leaf to hide and it held as still as possible as if hoping not to be seen. Lol

[@learningridge9002]

Oh my gosh! This should be a life note for gardeners!!

[@captlistswine9363]

I noticed small holes in my basil plant. Upon closer inspection, noticed small black droppings in clusters throughout, checking under the leaves directly above the clusters, I found the three culprits. They were removed with tweezers and now on display in a clear empty wine bottle with celery. Great video to help ID these three green oinkers!!

[@mistyme7]

Thanks for the tip. I've been having a lot of problems all throughout my gardens with these nasty worms. They are wreaking havoc on my basil, tomatoes and even my flowers. I just ordered the Thuricide and a sprayer. I sure hope it helps.

[@lucyw.mcmellan7274]

Never knew about corn meal, but I am certainly getting some. Your information is valuable, thank you so much.

[@tiffsbackyard740]

Just started my small garden and found the little worm 🐛. I will definitely try the cornmeal. Thanks for this video!

[@marinamcelrea1196]

Thanks I just ran into this issue in my garden but am against using pesticides. This was very helful!

[@Anne-FromQc]

Your disclaimer is much appreciated! 😁

[@marketpizza640]

Thanks for the video. I will try this as these pests are eating more than their share of my garden.

[@Kady3636]

Omg, thanks!!!!. I've lost so much of my veggies to caterpillars. I'll be trying the cornmeal asap and the others later this week. Great content!

[@BossOfAllTrades]

Try different species and what works for your area i noticed my sweets pumpkins would never make it to maturity so I replaced them with acorn squash and since they grow fast and harden fast with a strong shell they can't eat through

[@sophw8780]

Ohhh thank you for this video!!!! I have these little buggers all through my garden!! Practically eaten all my Kale, and others!

[@jihanahmed9274]

Great information! Thank you!

[@krissyseyebeatz2901]

Thank you for these tips. 👍

[@megmathisen9072]

So helpful help… can’t wait to try these methods!!!

[@tobywinter1]

Thanks so much for this video. My shrub sized basil plant was full of holes from the old to the brand new leaves. It's too late in the season now to do anything so I just chopped the whole thing down and salvaged what I could. But next year I will be prepared.

[@mysonbooboo]

Thanks for info. This is exactly what I was looking for

Nice info. Keep it coming

[@whoDatBeDare]

That was an excellent video. I've read thru quite a number of pages of the comments. No one has returned to say it worked. Or that it didn't work.

[@kman5924]

Nice . I wish I could have found this earlier 😢. My collard greens were eaten up this year.

[@gretchg9415]

Love the close up of these "aliens of a scientific movie. " 😄 Thanks Jag I really enjoy your videos! Those beautiful butterflies are deceiving 😬

[@DaisyCreekFarms]

They sure are, glad you liked the shots

[@pamelaholly276]

Im chasing them of garden when I see them .. bad butterflies 🦋

[@kumarnitish5115]

@@pamelaholly276 no their life cycles are very small and soon I think the caterpillar will turn into butterfly

[@mydreamhorse12]

Thank you. Great tips. Im getting close to the battle of these worms!

[@karenw9366]

So desperate to get rid of the larvae from the saw fly on my roses! I will try the corn meal next! Thanks!

[@valerieescabi6104]

Thank you

[@kymi_so_hot910]

Thanks for the cornmeal idea. I just got a lemon mint plant and I've removed the caterpillars from it within the past week! They haven't been near my chocolate mint tho thank goodness. Going to sprinkle some cornmeal tomorrow morning before I go to work. Jeez my mint won't have any leaves soon if I don't intervene.

[@ZakirHussain-dp4il]

Very good video. Your all videos are amazing👍👍👍

[@theserenityschool]

Great... Thanks...

[@imlen6441]

Wow thankyou for this sir

[@haroldinho9930]

I had to watch you because all the other channels spent 2 minutes on an intro, while my cabbage plant may already be dead, when I get rid of them (by knocking them off the plant) more come back! :(

[@norbertszeliga1316]

In Poland it's 11 p.m.
I'm going to sleep and video shows up so it's necessary to watch it.

[@DaisyCreekFarms]

:)

[@norbertszeliga1316]

Oo, thank You Jag. I appreciate your reply :)

Hi,
Great vlog thanks. Could I use the cornmeal on my sunflower leaves!

[@yolandagofigure]

Ty

[@Calchick7]

Would not use that second one but BT is great

You are one cool dude Farmer👍👍

[@parisbrooke9374]

Thank you, handsome man!

[@nappychef35]

Nice video. I will try these methods. Last season a pest ate all the flowers from my avocado trees. I never saw the bug and didn’t know how to stop the attack. Do you have any suggestions I could try? Thanks

[@chairajones6365]

Thanks I will be trying the Corn Meal Method because I am not going to use pestisides. I have alot of bees, ladybugs, animals and humans.

[@grey8940]

Thanks for the video. Quick question, should I worry about ants crawling on my cucumber plant?

[@jackshaftoe1715]

Good call jag, corn meal is much less work though not nearly as fun as tweezers, and slag hammer.

[@dorcaorgella9578]

Thanks for the video, can I use any corn meal? today I was so shocked when I see my kale plant with a lot of holes on the leaves, and a green caterpillar 🐛 eating them

[@barbaradawes6609]

I will try the cornmeal on my calallop

[@staralkabbi4749]

I found them today in my garden

[@imafemale4365]

Caterpillars are making a mockery of my passion leaves, some flowers and even a piece of a fruiting flower.. I keep seeing holes and scat but not seeing

[@plantsoverpills1643]

My Dad called the butterflies cabbage poopers, but in less polite terms!!

[@paperdogstudios6342]

I have 2 anise swallowtail caterpillars that are now in their chrysalis forms near my dill plants. This afternoon I spotted a small green (hopefully not cabbage) caterpillar near the dill. I'm wary about using an insecticide as I could be killing a potentially good pollinating butterfly. I guess i have to get better at ID'ing these little critters.

[@sagargojare11]

Hi. I have been seeing your videos from some time now. They are really very good. Can u please guide on natural or organic control on insect n pests attack on bell peppers in green house . We can't use beneficial insects in India so some other solutions would be useful.

[@padmajagudla6391]

Hi, will this corn meal trick work on black caterpillars in the soil?

[@moyitreyeebanerjee6619]

Hi Jag.. does Spinosad kills beneficial insects too?

[@homasafavi2775]

Hi, I have a lot of warm in my garden how can feed them which they don’t have root of my plant.I appreciate if you answer me as soon as possible.
Thanks

[@jackiesortino8823]

Hi Jag!! Are these sprays organic? Also do I have to spray the plants before using the cornmeal?

[@judyneri4629]

Are those spray safe to eat after use on plant?How often u should spray? Are the little monsters coming back or there’s a chance to come back?

[@DrivingFree]

So are you using the BT as a preventive or only when you see the worms?

[@leonesespann7080]

Are you applying the cornmeal everyday for 3 days?

[@rempenaverdeanxietyspeaks7477]

is there a homemade fertilizer i can make to use as pestecide?

[@goodluckc8937]

Hi Jag Singh, we just started fall crop in zone 6b .. looks like cut worms are damaging my beetroot/radish/turnip seedings .. though we applied DE and BT still seeing the damage very day .. we almost lost most of the seedlings.. wondering a lot. how to save them …please pour some suggestions ..thank you and appreciate your timely help.. take care
