I was wondering if anyone tried to breed butter worms(trevo worms). I have found sources of trevo seeds(Trevo is the bush that the worms and adult moths live on),so I thought I could just
grow trevo bushes and breed them in an enclosure with a bush in it. Does that sound okay? Does anyone know how to breed them? Should I just do trial and error with them? If I can get any info on this, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks, jrbl

I don't know if they are just gel or what but I have found that taking a scotch brite pad...without the soap or sponge attached...the cheapo sort of green scrubs and cutting them to fit a shallow dish and just covering them with water works better, lasts longer, and doesn't grow the nasties as much. And hey, it means misting them once a day but also saving money. Once a week I wash them and knock them out and use them for a couple three months. Then cut a new one when it gets to gross to keep.
