Worms on my broccoli!

[mom'sfolly]

I'm paying my eight year old 5 cents per caterpiller. He's picking everyday. Hopefully come food time, no worms.

You want some bT spray or powder for the worms. They're probably cabbage loopers.

It only kills worms and caterpillars and is otherwise safe if you follow the directions.

I'm sure they came off of and out of the broccoli during cooking, and nobody actually ate little wormies. You can find products for dusting your garden. Some you can even use on the day of harvest. When I grew broccoli, I didn't actually cook for dinner immediately, but blanched and froze. Broccoli just wasn't on the menu that night! During blanching, the wormies were left behind.
