My flower was healthy and then today after work I noticed it wilting and with a caterpillar on it. I actually got the plants for butterflies but not in my room😔what really worries me are the black things on it

Hi there, remove that caterpillar, the black things are its droppings. It will most likely eat all the foliage if not removed. 🌿🌿🌿

There were two of them😩but I removed them and tried to rinse the droppings off!

They are gross but part of nature. Just check your plant in case there are any more tiny ones hiding anywhere. I had a surprise caterpillar on my spider plant indoors that had a great time nibbling the leaves. I was so annoyed I didn’t see it until I noticed the little poos everywhere!
