This worm is destroying my tomatoes here in North Carolina. How is the best way to stop it, with poison as the last option. Thanks!
I can't see any pictures of your worm but read this topic - it may help you out. Topic: Repelling bugs that put holes in my tomatoes
If it's a green horned worm, just reach in and pull them off and dispose of them any way you see fit. I step on them but many people don't kill them because they like the moth they turn into. But, I don't raise my tomatoes to feed moths. dooley
Catapiller Killer Bacillus Thuringensis Concentrate 8 oz Bonide Products The above is a mixture that is diluted and you mix it with water and apply with a spray bottle. It is a natural substance that makes the caterpillars ill and then they die. This is the tomato horned worm. Best thing to do is apply the above mixture and then look for these BIG caterpillars and then kill them. ( photo / image / picture from gardenmama's Garden )
