[QUOTE="Darkrai283, post: 270626, member: 7880"] I agree with Ranitomeya in that there is no way of saving the catty now that they've already spun cocoons on the surface. It means that the larvae have already eaten most of the catty and have alreay gnawed their way through the skin in order to pupate. What's usually left is a saggy bag which once used to be a caterpillar. ...I isolate and kill all cattys that come infected with parasitic wasp larvae as soon as I can. No chance on releasing the wasps back into the wild either. I breed moths such as the Actias and Attacus, and hawkmoth species and it would be devastating if they all got laid eggs in! [/QUOTE]
