MrLundScience | Raising Monarchs - OE Parasite Prevention (Help The Monarch Butterfly) @MrLundScience | Uploaded 7 years ago | Updated 3 hours ago
OE is a parasite that harms, deforms, and can even kill Monarch (and Queen) Butterflies. This video shows a method of bleach treating both eggs and leaves that will kill the parasite, but will not harm your Monarch eggs!
Two other videos on the OE parasite are part of the Raising Monarch series, and are highly recommended to better understand how this parasite works.

If you are new to this series, I highly recommend checking out the "core" of Raising Monarchs, Parts 1 - 5, which shows in detail, how I raise Monarchs from egg to adult, and how you can too with essentially zero cost using household items.
