He has discovered the lizard alien people's lair. I'm surprised he was able to get a pic and live

Yes actually right beside them. Is it a bad idea? I'll chop those tomatoes up right now!

Not sure it helps
But my knowing that came from past experience
Biggest green worms i have ever seen, and wiped out a plant in days

You probably had tomato horn worm but that looks more featureless and no makings, possibly a copper underwing not sure but I kill all caterpillars on my plants regardless….

Some insects are developing a resistance to BT. There was another post recently where someone had been spraying BT regularly and still got worms in their buds.


"For the first time, researchers have identified how cabbage looper caterpillars in the field develop resistance to the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt)"
