Subject: catepillars on sago palm

I have two sago palms (cycas ruhmii (sp?)) which have a big problem with
catepillars.  A friend told me to use diluted soap solution which works for
some of the other plants.  Unfortunately, it also caused the new leaves to
wilt.  I don't want to use insecticide if I can help it. 

Can any one offer a more earth-friendly method?
