I finally found a cat on my dill last night. This morning I took a closer look and found some more. I decided I wanted to raise these even though I never have before. Considering I also host birds I wanted to keep them safe. So today I quickly made a cardboard house.

The dill is in floral foam. There is a dowel rod through the top for any chrysalis development. I'm keeping it on my covered porch. Is that okay or do they need sun? If I have to move it out then I suppose I'll need to use wood instead of cardboard.
