We stopped having the bug guy spray the yard and now just have them spray the outside surface of the house.

That's all I do, and treat problems as they arise (mainly ants).

Yeah, if you get takers on the passion flower it will be a shock to see them all. The plant should survive, though. They evolved together, and the caterpillars know that if they kill the plant they won't have anything for future offspring. The whole process is cool to watch. Milkweed is the same for monarchs.

Yeah, i pretty much bought it to be caterpillar food, like a science experiment, but the plant is pretty big even after 6 months of winter growth, so i’m hoping for fruit.
