Heads up to those in California cabbage looper and tomato horn worm are making there move in on us ..... Or at least my garden found 7-8 eggs on my peppers and eggplants looked over my tomatoes but no luck in finding any picked two more cabbage loopers off my broccoli. One question does anybody know what I can use to combat tomato horn catapillar?? Sulfur?? I hear dusting sulfur works any feed back appreciated

I'm in CA also. I scared away a huge tomato horn moth on my tomato plant but I think it was too late.
Today I noticed the little caterpillar turds on some tomato leaves but no sign of caterpillars or chewed up leaves.

I hear BT works well to kill caterpillars.

It does but I'm having trouble getting it even though my work sells it but you need a permit to buy

What?? For BT?? It's the least dangerous pesticide I know of!

It's available at every nursery known to man...LOL

If you can't get it locally, order online.
