I finally saw whatever is destroying my rose. What is this and how can I kill it?

Caterpillar of some sort, rather than killing it, move it out of your garden into the wild somewhere, place it in a bush and he’ll be sound

So it’s not putting holes in my rose leaves? I just took it off the bush but something is destroying this plant and the organic rose insecticide/fungicide that I got doesn’t seem to be helping.

It definitely is and if there’s a lot of them they’ll eventually strip it

### Lynda comentó el 2024-05-28

The caterpillar is definitely eating your rosebuds!

#### JungleJill respondió el 2024-05-28

What can I do about them?

### Lynda comentó el 2024-05-28

Oops! Sent that previous post before I finished the text. I’m afraid to say I don’t know exactly what kind of caterpillar that is, but someone will know and that way you can find the right type of product to keep it from killing your roses. Nasty guy! Good luck!😊💚🪴

Thanks, Lynda! I think that I have multiple issues with this bush unfortunately. I’m going to my local garden center tomorrow to see what they can do for me.

#### Lynda respondió el 2024-05-28

That’s a very smart move!  
😊💚🪴
