Has anyone got red wasps killing the monarch caterpillars. these wasps are nasty, zooming in and stinging the larger caterpillars and carrying off the small ones. I have a tree two metres high by a metre across. Most days four butterflies are laying eggs but few leaves are missing. The eggs and smaller caterpillars disappear - the larger ones die in situ and the red wasps eat them. I need a couple of metres of net curtaining to cover the whole plant to protect the critters. Any remedy/ideas on how to get rid of the red wasps - they are the orangey/red ones whose legs dangle down. Thanks
