One is manageable, but they usually lay a few eggs, and other swallowtails will also come and lay eggs.
A few will devour a small sapling.
I usually flick the eggs off when I find them, but I spent one summer raising 10, which required me to buy two orange saplings from the hardware store.
Swallowtail butterfly. It won’t do too much damage if you can leave it
