I found this caterpillar massacring my tomato plants. So I cut off the branch and did some research to see what the white things are. The white things are wasp larvae, which are living off the caterpillar and slowly killing it. !!Gross!!
I don't want this shit at my house, so I put it in a Tupperware and punched some holes in it. Then I took it to the kids' school to show them. They loved it, freaking out with happiness that mom found the hungry caterpillar.
I explained that he needed a home. So we took him and left him in the bushes of our local Dunkin' Donuts. They boys think that he eats donuts every day for breakfast and wave happily as we drive past.
I am so winning parent of the year.
