That is creepy and cool all at the same time! I'm in the process of building a butterfly garden right now, so I'll also be stocking up on the milkweed.
where do you live? I am in Miami and there is a butterfly garden sanctuary here. I buy the plants there but you may find them at plant nurseries. Home Depot sometimes. You can order on-line or plant from seeds. The milkweed is so hardy so that is easy but trim the stalks after the leaves are eaten and stick them in dirt. They will grow into new plants and the other plant will rehab better.
Cont. ....I have had great luck with the monarchs. I love them so much!!! They eat a lot and I find myself often having to go on emergency milkweed missions. be prepared for that so they do not starve. They will do the rest.
lol..been there ,done that! great job.

Cool. I have only seen a monarch caterpillar up front and personal once in my life. I can't believe you have so many.
