Use Sevins Dust on your cabbages. It is one of the most effective, but least toxic of insect and larvae killer. You can use it on all your crops. It will control potato bugs and bean beetles. You may have to apply it a second time after a heavy rain. Another choice is neem. I use a concentrate and mix it with water according to the directions. Spray it on your plants, and under the leaves, too. Neem paralyzes the mouthparts of chewing insects and causes them to starve to death. They can sit on your plants and veggies as long as they like, but they can't eat them with their mouths being completely numb!
