Tomato (and pepper) Hornworms
Yes.
The bees bring the dust grains back to the hive in the pollen baskets
on their hind legs, and then the Sevin dust wipes the whole hive out.
Bees need all the friends they can get these days.
Be sure to spray the liquid in the evening, if possible, when the
pollinators are less likely to be active.
Bt is effective for tomato fruit worm as well.
Use any pesticides, organics or otherwise, as sparingly as possible so
as to encourage the parasitic wasps to regain their balance and do
their job

Liquid sevin is what I heard. The powder is being picked up/
killing bees.
FWIW
