Not too sure on this, but I believe the reading I've done on this
subject
states that the Monarch Butterfly caterpillar is affected by the Bt corn 
pollen which is wind-carried to its sole food source - milkweed leaves. 
Pollen is the lovely yellow dusting that covers your car in spring and
summer.

                        
BTW, I'm with ya all the way on the lima bean thang! 
Nasty lil buggers, ain't they?! :)
