Default Using BT & Daconil/Serenade

We finally have a break in the rain & I need to treat for caterpillars (BT) and also try to prevent Septoria/Early Blight with a fungicide (Daconil or Serenade). How would you space both treatments? Same day okay? A day apart? Does it matter which goes on first? I'm somewhat new to this & am trying to stay on top of both issues before they become major problems again this year!

Thanks for any help!

You didn't mention how big your plants are. If fairly large I'd go with the fungicide first since the plants can probably withstand the loss of a few leaves due to caterpillars but once Septoria or EB get a hold of them it's harder to control. Then follow up with the Bt a day or two later.
