CUTWORMS are green or brown caterpillars that curl into a C shape when disturbed. They eat young
plants at the soil line at night, and can leave a healthy seedling cut off entirely and lying on the ground.
▪ CONTROLS: Eliminate weeds around garden beds at least two weeks before planting. Hand-picking
cutworms at night may help, or you can protect seedlings with cardboard collars or one or more
toothpicks (inserted close and parallel to the stem).
