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 Eating Video
Eating is the primary job of a Monarch caterpillar. Monarch caterpillars eat milkweed plants not
just because they are nourishing but also because the bitter substance contained in them protects Monarch caterpillars
from birds and mice.
