Several questons, I have several var of toms, and a couple of
cherry typs,,, the tomato worms liked one of the cherrys, and all of
everything I planted, in one nite they ate almost half of each plant I
have. Location here,,,, south of San Antonio Tex.
1. What can I use to kill/delete?
2.What advice for next season?
3. Do "they' dislike certain varities?
4.R there natural preditors?
I planted this year in wine barrels, mulch/pott soil.
All other veg. plants seem to be doing well.
thanks in advance. cl.


Natural predators are paper and mud wasps.
Don't destroy nests unless they are a hazard.

Use BT, it is available from the nursery.

Go out at dawn and dusk and hand-pick them from the damaged areas...

Good luck!!!!!!
