Default Butterfly eggs.

I have butterfly eggs on the underneath of my calabrese leaves, how do I get rid of them, as I'm sure when they hatch the little blighters will devour the leaves
Any tips?

Squash them! Its the only sure way of getting rid.

Bob Flowerdew reccomends spraying with seaweed feed to put off pests etc. We have been using it have had a few eggs but not as many as last year. Not sure if it is down to the feed or more regular inspection!

Good luck,

Sandra
