Great white Butterfly


We looked in the school garden this morning. To our horror (and excitement) we found some great white butterfly caterpillars. Mrs T phoned the Ministry for Primary Industries hotline (0800 80 99 66) and reported our find. Will and Jo came this afternoon and confirmed that they are these pesky butterflies that arrived in Nelson in 2010. If you find any on your brassicas please phone the hotline number.

  1. So impressed with the follow up we got from this, George told us what you found and what for us to look for at home, funnily enough we had some one official come and check us the next day and thankfully no sightings! Jac (George's mum)
