Eggs on Brussels sprouts

[cariann88]

I found these little white eggs on the underneath of my Brussels sprouts. I also found some catapillers as well. Could it be white fly?


Also I found under the leaf some green eggs. What could these be?

First pic' looks like a small cabbage white caterpillar to me.

Second pic' probably caterpillar eggs I reckon

Third pic' looks like it might be caterpillar "dirt" (poo)

I agree with BB squish em, except the poop that is.

3rd picture looks like a cluster of tiny large white caterpillars, newly hatched. i have the same on my broccoli. Squish as many as possible as they eat a HUGE amount and your sprouts will be leafless very quickly if you leave them.

Yep after making the picture bigger I agree with Penellype,you can see depressions in the soft flesh where they have been eating,squish them but wear gloves as they have been eating there will be "soil"
