Yes, we have tobacco worms on our tomato plants and they are eating them up. My husband and son picked over 50 off last night and my son and I just went outside and picked another 30 or so off. They are just stripping my plants. I did a little research and it said to use ground hot pepper to sprinkle on the plants or get insecticide with BT in it. We do have seven dust and are wondering if that will help. I will be doing way more research on that.

Oh that was awful. Instead of you eating your tomatoes, it's the worms that feasted on it. It's good as you mentioned to make some research on how to control the worms so it will not affect much your plants. Anyway, it might be helpful to claim God's promises to prosper you and to keep those pests away from your plants. Good day!happy

Yes! They were having a feast on my tomatoes! LOL, All my life I had never seen one until today but I knew what it was instantly. Yes, that is what we need to do and let God take care of them and flourish our bounty of tomatoes. Praise the Lord! God bless you!

I only have one cherry tomato plant so far, and I don't have any bugs yet. I pray the bugs stay clear of them. I would think seven dust would work but not sure, from my recollection seven dust we used on rose plants. Hope you over come the tobacco worms.

I hope we do too soon. They are sure big boogers! LOL They blend in so well it is hard to find them all. Thanks for posting. God bless you!
