Butterflies and Beasties

Sadly I seem to have acquired a small snail infestation, and as you cannot get simple things like slug pellets I resorted to getting them drunk to kill them. The pink stuff below was a wine cooler that someone left at our last Barbecue that I have no intention of drinking, the problem was that the butterflies seemed to like it more than the snails. Actually managed to photograph some of them as they were drunk and not as fast as usual. Not too sure on the varieties of butterflies, so if you so know, please tell me.

My Landlord also let me plant out my papaya tree, but I have since been informed that as it is male, it will not yield any fruit.
