I had lots of eggs on my 7 or 8 milkweed plants. Also lots of ants. Appeared the larva were being eaten shortly after hatching.
I started a monarch rescue. So far I have 16 that have chrysalis and about five more about 6 days away.
Depressing at how many of these larva will not survive in the wild. I will have 20 going to Mexico, not too bad for 7 milkweed plants.
