Cabbage Moth Decoy
The Cabbage White Butterfly is a major pest of Brassica species (broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, Asian greens) world-wide. With its territorial behaviour it will avoid laying eggs if other Cabbage White's are present. Gardeners are successfully using Decoy Moths to confuse and deter this pest. This is a simple, no-spray, no-net alternative to help control. Recommended placement is 2 per 5 m², put the Decoys in place as you plant.

Upland Cress
Barbarea verna
syn. Winter Cress
A low growing, very cold hardy, biennial vegetable with a delicate, peppery flavour to use in salads or as a cooked green. The yellow blossoms attract beneficial insects including bees.
An ABC Gardening Australia segment talked about using cress as a dead-end trap crop for Cabbage White butterflies. The moths and butterflies are attracted to the cress and lay their eggs on the leaves but when the caterpillars hatch, they take a bite out of the leaves and die.

Nature's Way DIPEL® Caterpillar Control BFA Organic
A pest control mainstay for organic growers worldwide. Dipel contains Bacillus thuringiensis, (Bt) which is highly effective and specific against most species of leaf eating caterpillars including lawn armyworm syn. lawn grub, cotton bollworm, cabbage moth, cabbage white butterfly, green looper, lightbrown apple moth, native budworm, pear looper, vine moth, soybean looper and tobacco looper. This biological control is a bacterial stomach poison for all caterpillars, which is mixed with water and sprayed onto both sides of foliage. It must be ingested by the actively feeding caterpillar which dies 3-4 days later. It is not a contact spray. It is totally safe for beneficial insects, including ladybirds and bees as well as fish, birds, mammals and pets. Bt is broken down by sunlight within a few days, so repeated applications may be necessary. Supplied as 1 carton containing 4 packs of 10 grams with each 10 grams making up to 10 litres of spray. Active constituent: 8640 International units of potency per mg of Bacillus Thuringiensis var. Kurstaki. Material Safety Data Sheet

Insect Habitat Stations
Organic gardening and "gardening with nature" have in common the basic premise that the natural world is diverse and interrelated. Sadly, so much of our management of land has reduced habitat for creatures large and small. We simply must re-create habitats and refugees, provide water and alternate food sources for our mostly hidden garden allies. These beneficial insects, native solitary bees and associated animals are essential. These simple structures provide a nesting site which will help maintain a healthy population of hard working pollinators and predatory insects in your garden.
