Seven released today, 91 YTD. This year I've just clipped stems of common and swamp milkweed with eggs and larvae and placed them in outdoor hampers and then left them alone.

The eggs and larva that I have left in the gardens for more than a few days experience a very high rate of predation.

The gender ratio has been running about 2 to 1 male to female. Last year it was close to 50/50.
