 I am not sure.  Most of the moth that I see are white,I see a few light yellow ones, the worms are green about the same color of the Broccoli  leaf veins.
 
I did seem to control all the worms that were present.  Probably not much help, sorry.

Do you know if Cabbage Looper was indeed one of the pests you controlled? Its tougher to kill than Imported Cabbage Worm, so it would be great to learn this was effective on that pest too.
