THANK YOU BROTHER DAVE
Thanks for the helpful video, this'll really help my mom's garden.
Those nasty things traumatized me! I saw them for the first time a year ago and I am 61 years old and my father grew tomatoes all of my life and then I started when he passed. He never mentioned that nasty worm. I was close to my father and used to watch him garden and I think he would have mentioned it had he had a problem with it or had he known what was eating his tomato plants some years. They wiped out my tomatoes halfway from noon till 3 p.m. before I spotted them! I didn't know what I was looking at but I went onto YouTube and found out! Quite frankly I didn't want to continue growing my tomatoes but I did. They basically pruned the tops off for me and I did get tomatoes later on but not after my lifelong disgust and Trauma with the nasty tomato worm😂 oh, and they're HUGE!
Good info!!
I always look for their frass when inspecting my plants. The ones about the size you have there are good eating. Shallow fry in oil being careful not to tear the skin/cuticle. They are quite tasty.
I believe a dose of Sevin dust will deal with them.
Great post 4 sure/ we find them easier to locate in early morning light
Btw Here in Miss the horn worm will pinch the fire out of you given the chance Lol
I will def order that light…
Btw Do you know of a natural way to wipe out fire ants?
I've tried every you tube tip out there…those things invade the Okra crop
and can literally be deadly Thanks again
