My nasturtions have lots of tiny black caterpillars on, I keep pulling the affected leaves off , have also used a spray, but they insist on remaining !!
Any suggestions would be helpful.

Try spray them with a mixture of liquid soap and water. Mind you nasturtiums are as tough as old boots so they usually survive a caterpillar attack without problems.
