If you're waking up in the morning to find holes in your broccoli, kale and cabbage, you're probably wondering what's eating your plants. It can't be birds, and you don't have any ground hogs or rabbits in the area - it may be a cabbage looper or cabbage moth.
You can click on the link below to see if the holes you see are similar to those in the picture.
If you suspect you have cabbage moths, be sure to spray your crops with a solution of Neem oil (1 tsp.) one drop of Dr. Bonner or Basic H2 concentrated Liquid Soap (please e-mail team@shaklee.net for Basic H2) in a quart of water (in a spray bottle) in the evening before nightfall. Be sure the spray the underside as well since that is where the larvae like to harvest.
Even if you see some holes, your crops are not ruined, you just want to prevent more damage.
