I discovered him in my bell peppers. He is a horned tomato worm. I will name him pointy.

I saw a guy like this on my Grandmother's tomatoes when I was a kid. I never ate raw tomatoes again!

Those sucker reeked havoc on my jalapeƱos plants.

I had 5 of those fatties on one plant. It had been a few days since I'd been out to look at the garden and they had almost scalped the entire plant.

I am keeping a closer watch this year, the black dropings on the soil are a tell tale sign.

nice pic!

I haven't seen one of those for years... didn't know they could live out here in the desert.
