Caterpillars Are NOT Cute

The other day I was disappointed to see a large hole in one of our green peppers. I figured the culprit was either some small unseen insect or an opportunistic bird striking while the dogs weren't looking. Billy suggested we try a pesticide, which I wasn't too excited about. Until today when I noticed this:


You can see piles of caterpillar poop under the plant if you look closely. (Not that you want to, of course.)






Forget the pesticide, we need a shotgun.

Anna: I do not know if Billy ever told you that one of his dad's strength is the fact that I simply adore children. Since being introduced to your blog it absolutely awesome to be able to watch these three adorable children grow. I can not wait for the day that they turn around and reveal what certainly are some pretty awesome smiles!!! Hugs and kisses to all at the Texas Morrison household!!
