I've not heard anyone talking about this dreaded parasite this year. The reason I bring it up is that I've got so many cats right now, that it would be much easier for me to have one big container with all the cats and chrysalids together. Up until now, I've been keeping some groups together, that I collected as very small cats, and putting any new eggs or cats into smaller containers to keep them somewhat isolated. This way, if I have any infected cats, they won't ruin all the work I've done, just whatever is in their particular container. I don't even know if I could identify a sick butterfly if I had one, so maybe I'm just wasting my time and not helping the problem much anyway. Any comments?
