Is there an easy way to get rid of hornworms on my tomato plants? I
am a new gardener. I found one yesterday and one today, theya are
hard to see and there are probably more.

I googled and found Bonide Bt Thuricide but was wondering if there is
another 'home' solution.

Thanks!


Thuricide is good, BT is harmless to humans and pets. Use it.


Place hornworm on piece of board.
Place another piece of board on top of hornworm.
Press boards together.
Works for me.
