Stupid, Stupid Catapillars.....grrr!

So I decided to plant my garden...yes in February. It is getting in the 80's these days which is perfect for my garden to start to bloom and look pretty. Not so much!!! Tonight I come home to find that my 2 rows of radishes that finally had the real leaves are ALL GONE. After I watered them just in case they will continue to grow without leaves I find caterpillars crawling on what was my radish. I run into the house to have Rob come take a look...which he refuses because I have not yet planted his desired vegetable, make me bring them to him. There was not just one Caterpillar but four BIG and one little baby caterpillar. Did I mention that I planted carrots and they have seemed to disappear as well?

I guess I will have to defend my ground and kill one worm at a time. If I can keep the dogs out of my garden do you think I can keep worms out as well?
