My Favorite Caterpillar Guides
I rated these guides based on my own experience. However, if you are serious about the subject
and gardening in general you should probably have both of them.
My #1 Guide:
- The most comprehensive guide to caterpillars available today
- Contains ALL the information necessary to find and identify the caterpillars of North America
- Explains visual differences between young and older caterpillars
- Explains how to distinguish between butterfly caterpillars and moth caterpillars
- Perfect to explore caterpillar life together with kids
My #2 Guide:
Although this one has 1,200 color photos and over 500 pages long, I still prefer the above one as it appears more handy
and the info is better organized. But this one is a very good option too. And customer reviews are very positive as well.
Monarch Caterpillar Going to Chrysalis
Why Monarch Caterpillars eat so much? They need to have supplies in the body to support life during the pupa stage because later they won’t be able to feed on plants for 2 weeks. Watch how Monarch Caterpillar turns into pupa.
