when caterpillars are spotted on butterfly weed, the plant is cut, put into water bottle and put into outdoor screened wood framed "nursery" until they hatch, dry for 4 hours and are released. I have had a chrysalis show signs of parasites- and die. I ordered a kit to test the wings of the adult for parasites.
