Monarch butterflies lay their eggs on milkweed plants. The milkweed plant is the only food source for monarch caterpillars, so this is where the female butterflies choose to lay their eggs.

They don't hurt the milkweed plant, really. They do drink the nectar in the flower and/or lay eggs underneath the leaves of the plant.

Yes, milkweed plants are the only food source for monarch caterpillars. The caterpillars rely on milkweed to lay eggs and feed their young. In return, monarch caterpillars help pollinate milkweed plants as they move from flower to flower.
Milkweed is important to butterflies because it is the host plant for monarch butterfly caterpillars. Monarch butterflies lay their eggs exclusively on milkweed plants, and the caterpillars feed on the leaves of milkweed as they grow and develop. Without milkweed, monarch butterflies would not be able to complete their life cycle.
Milkweed is crucial for butterflies, especially monarchs, as their larvae feed exclusively on milkweed leaves. Monarchs lay their eggs on milkweed plants, which provide necessary nutrients and chemicals that help protect the caterpillars from predators. Without milkweed, monarch populations can decline due to lack of suitable habitat for reproduction.
What plants Monarch butterflies do not like is not all that important, though no specific plants that they do not like are known. The most important thing is that they not only like, but need specific kinds of milkweed for their survival. They lay their eggs on milkweed and the caterpillars feed on the plant.

A monarch caterpillar will look for milk weed, once it finds one it will eat from it. That's how they get their poison. When they come out of their chrysalis they will fly around and every once in a while land on a milk eed and possibly spend a few minutes to a few hours on it. Monarch butterflies will eat milk weed too.
