I haven't noticed any cabbage white butterflies around for the past week or so. Is it likely they've all gone now - it would make weeding so much easier if I could take down my netting at long last.
Depends where you are, not gone here in the west.
Still lots here in the southeast.

Still a few around but no caterpillars-I didn`t cover mine this year and by some miracle had not a single caterpillar.
I would risk taking the netting off if the weeds are getting too much.

Still here in Northants too, but fewer so I've removed the tunnel from the sprouting broc as it was getting too leggy and 1 or 2 were falling over. But I'm keeping a beady eye out and squidging where necessary! Anybody else had white fly this summer?

Haven't seen any here in the Cairngorms for a couple of weeks. I think the recent gales must have blown them all away
