Noticed a few moths hanging around the greenhouse over the past few days.

Lo! and behold, today found 2 leaves with lime green mini eggs underneath - these transform into the caterpillars that don't only eat the leaves, but will also eat green tomatoes.  The next stage for looking out is caterpillar poo on lower leaves.

These blighters are about 4-5 days ahead from last year, so if you've suffered in the past suggest you go hunting now.  ;)
