I would like to know if using Bacillus thuringiensis on my plants would be safe for eliminating those damn caterpillars. My plants are already in the flowering stage, so im not sure. As for the moths, I have a fogger, but if you people know of another way, please tell me. Thanks.

whenever i get caterpillers i spend some time pulling em off by hand. they're not hard to track down...either follow the damage or their turds. i'd be wary of introducing anything foreign at this late stage and it's really not that hard to do it by hand. once ya get an eye for them it's easy and very satisfying too! all part of the therapy...

So are moths and caterpillars something that you are going to have to deal with or it's just one of those things where you get them once in a while?

I'm not into creepy crawly things .... no :(
