Howdy,

I searched this subforum but got no hits on these hungry little critters. We have them on our potato plants, and a few on the tomatoes too.

We're fighting them with an "organic" Spinosad product from TLC, with limited success. Has anybody else successfully fought tomato horn worms, and if so how did you win?

Thanks

Those buggers used to invade my tobacco crop. I found an organic spray for them bacillus something. It's a bug that gives them a bellyache when they ingest it and they starve. It was extremely effective!
