I found this morning that black caterpillars have eaten the leaves of my carrots, just leaving the stalks, will they be ok or should I pull them up now?
Also badly eaten are the tops of the leaves of the onions, again will these be ok?
What are the pests likely to be?
Please don't be offended by my nickname 'Mortality'
As to its history it was the name of a character I played in an online game called 'Everquest'
The character 'Mortality Rate' was a female Dark Elf Necromancer, the name seemed apt at the time and has been used alot by me over the years.

Onions?..... You might get rabbit damage early in the year if there is nothing else for them to eat but I can't think of anythgin that would choose to eat onions at this time of year....

Looks like it's some sort of dark coloured caterpillar on the onions too ;(

The catterpillas have eaten the leaves down to the bulb, and now it seems they've started on the leeks.  >:(
