  • Does anyone know what type of butterflies these caterpillars will be?



    There are about ten of these caterpillars munching at my strawberry plants in my greenhouse. I'd love to know what type of butterfly they will become?

            I bought some plants last year that looked healthy,no holes in the leaves until after I planted them & when the strawberries were growing they had a white coating on them instead of green then red. My original strawberry patch a couple of meters away was alright for a while but then I noticed holes in those leaves after a couple of weeks or so,they spread! But the strawberries on my original plants were great still. I was forever squashing them too & they're easy to find,right next to the little holes,that turn into big holes.
