  • Eggs on Brussels sprouts

    I found these little white eggs on the underneath of my Brussels sprouts. I also found some catapillers as well. Could it be white fly?


    Also I found under the leaf some green eggs. What could these be?

        3rd picture looks like a cluster of tiny large white caterpillars, newly hatched. i have the same on my broccoli. Squish as many as possible as they eat a HUGE amount and your sprouts will be leafless very quickly if you leave them.

          Yep after making the picture bigger I agree with Penellype,you can see depressions in the soft flesh where they have been eating,squish them but wear gloves as they have been eating there will be "soil"
