Caterpillar Obsessed

Caterpillar Obsessed

This could be our best third party endorsement yet for Koala Eco! Apparently, most caterpillars are pretty fussy.

They can tell from the smell, taste and texture whether a leaf is good for them to eat or not. There’s a chance this curious woolly bear caterpillar might have picked up the scent of some essential oil from one of the native botanicals we use, like the Lemon Scented Tea Tree (Leptospermum petersonii), or maybe Eucalyptus (Eucaplytus radiata).

And this little guy has nothing to fear from checking out a Koala Eco product, because nothing we make harms humans, creatures or the planet. Or impressive hairstyles!
