the black caterpillars



THE BLACK CATERPILLARS

The black caterpillars
They make the annual return
Once the hot weather looms
These pests will crawl into the garden

They lay eggs in hundreds
Once the eggs hatched
The black caterpillars walk
On the floor tiles and garden

They want to show
We are back!
We keep you busy
We keep the pests controllers run”

When they are squashed
They give a kind of stinky smell
No bird will eat it
The birds will avoid

The source is at the public area
Full of tall grasses and bushes
Though some have been used for planting
The town council hardly clears the field

The black caterpillars
The eggs can lay dormant for months
The organic chemicals can't destroy them
At best it keeps them away
