After my broccoli was completely destroyed by cabbage worms I decided I've got to do something. I ran across this website and thought you all might find it useful. I feel pretty stupid for not looking it up before, I could have saved my broccoli plants (which I was letting go to seed to replant themselves) with molasses, water and dish soap.
