Exterminating Puss Caterpillars, Pg. 6: An alternative, or addition, to the manual method described on the previous page, is to use a squeeze bottle or syringe to apply natural pesticides such as cedar oil, orange oil, rosemary oil, or similar pesticides to the caterpillars you find.

When using natural pesticides, you are less likely to come into direct contact with the puss caterpillars, yet you will still manage to kill them in such a way that their natural predators are not affected.

Since you won't find every caterpillar, the ones that are left must still be killed by natural predators, so keeping those predators alive is very important. Please, if you have experience using natural pesticides against puss caterpillars, e-mail a report to me so that information can be posted here for others to read. NEXT PAGE.
