My good friend told me that more than 90% of monarch butterflies would not survive if left in the wild because they are parasitized by tachin flies and with OE parasites are infected. disputes. She told me if eggs are found on my milkweed plants I can pluck the leaves with the eggs, bleach them with a 5% bleach solution to kill the OE spores, and when the eggs hatch, place them on bleached milkweed cuttings in the butterfly habitat . This living space is perfect - it has mesh on 3 sides to allow air to circulate. If they turn into butterflies I release them after taking a sample to make sure they are OE free. Western monarch populations are declining rapidly - habitat loss is occurring - so these steps are necessary. For anyone interested in raising monarchs, steps are available online.
