Hi Yazdy, Whenever u see the leaves are being eaten/crumpled in a potted plant, u tend to use the pesticides to remove the infection.
However, many a times it is a food plant of caterpillars of butterflies or moths. Although all the leaves are eaten and the the entire plant becomes leafless, dont worry. It is the natural process which u should not interfere into. After some days, these caterpillars will form a pupa/ cocoon and imrge into a butterfly or a moth. Eventually, the plant will grow new leaves again. i have reared many butterflies and moths so far sucessfully. plese remember when u remove a cocoon from a leaf, u kill a butterfly or a moth before it is born. cheers, shubhada ________________________________ From: Yazdy Palia <[email protected]> If that is the case, removing the cocoon should help. regards Yazdy Palia.
