The bugs will come out. I've only had those cabbage worms but they come out with the salt water. After you harvest the broccoli you can soak it in cold salt water. The bugs will come out.

Obviously you can try chemical pesticides--I prefer the ones you can sprinkle in the corners and around the edges so I don't put any on the food itself. And there are lots of organic solutions, including companion planting. Certain plants help with disease and pests. Laura–I didn’t have a lot of problems with broccoli, as far as bugs go.

IS there something I can do to eliminate this problem? My family lOVES fresh broccoli, so I'd really love to have it growing in our own back yard. Thanks!
