tomato hornworms do not & *cannot* "sting". you can pick them
off with your fingers. they won't hurt you.
however, in the interests of accuracy, those big green
caterpillers on your tomatoes are actually tobacco
hornworms... they can't sting either. & they turn into really
cool moths. i grow sacrificial tomato plants just for the
hornworms.

The host resolved to NSA.
