Warren (ISBN 0-86350-203-2) is a practical guide to planning and creating a butterfly garden. Some suggestions for wildlife friendly gardening:- No herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, slug - snail - worm or mole chemical killers, or lawndressings with their weed and worm killers, or poisonous chemicals of any kind whtsoever are ever to be used. Plant everything in masses, never in single plants. Plant flowers of one colour rather than mixed colours. Plant single flowers rather than double ones. Plant medium to pale-coloured flowers rather than dark ones. Plant flowers fairly close together, thus leaving less room for weeds. Save water by mulching the bed with 4 inch (100mm or 1 brick depth) deep organic compost in the autumn. Either use Spent Mushroom Compost for alkaline (chalk) soils or Forest Bark with sterilized bone-meal for acid soils as the Organic Compost. Feed with liquid seaweed manure (Maxicrop) or seaweed meal on lawns and beds each year. Butterflies and Moths in Britain and Europe by D. Carter (ISBN 0-330-26642-x) lists their favourite food plants.

Hymn 782 contains the following ode to a caterpillar:- Caterpillar, caterpillar, munching, munching, ate through a leaf or two, for caterpillar, caterpillar, munching, munching, didn't have a lot to do. But the leaves were very tasty, and there seemed a lot to spare, so caterpillar, caterpilla, went on munching, munching ev'rywhere. Caterpillar, caterpilla, feeling sleepy, fixed up a silken bed. Then caterpilla, caterpilla, climbed inside and covered up his sleepy head. In the dark he slept and rested as the days and nights went by, till on a sunny morning when the silk bed burst, he was a butterfly. Butterfly, oh butterfly, a flitt'ring, flutt'ring; oh what a sight to see. And as the lovely butterfly was flutt'ring by, I heard him sing a song to me: 'Oh I never knew God could do such a wondrous thing for me; for he took me as a caterpillar and he made a butterfly of me'.
