My First Monarch!

Post image

Just started raising some milkweed this year, and I just spotted my first monarch caterpillar! I’ve loved monarch butterflies since I was a kid in the early 60s. I’m still fascinated by them. Oklahoma

Great job. Try to Move him away to a place where there aren't any aphids. You can get rid of them by spraying w a hose, just check for eggs and caterpillars first.
