Lemon leaf eater insect? Larva
Hi, an insect has attacked my lemon plant, i think its larva. Few days before it attacked and I found that it has eaten many leaves of lemon plant and I cut that leaf on which it was and throw that out, but today again I found one more has attacked and I cut that again and throw out this insect. But it seems it's coming again and again. How to take care of it? Any home remedies #lemon #larva

Dear Vivek Gurkha Yes it comes again and again, since the butterfly lay eggs on the plants . Even if you remove one or two caterpillars or pupae , they still keep coming. Since it is a kitchen garden where you have one or two plants , we advise you to remove them manually. If it is not possible give a spray of neem oil , which is available in the market as Azadaractin . It is safe for use in kitchen garden.
