            | Marv. | On top of Brush Mountain, Pa. | Several days ago I spotted some damage on my tomato plants from hornworms. I found a few and removed them but the damage continued. Last night I sprayed the plants with bacillus thuragensis and this morning I found several dead hornworms on the ground under my plants and one on a plant barely moving. BT really does work and quickly as well. | 8/3/2020 9:49:59 AM | 
		
            | Tyler | Waterville,Ohio | Also if you go out at night with a black light they glow! Makes them easy to find | 8/3/2020 10:02:29 AM | 
		
            | Greenbud | Coventry Rhode Island  USA | Guess my merit has worn off  ! Picked 16 hornworms off the last couple days ! Is there any other name for Bt ? It’s organic too Wright ?  | 8/3/2020 10:35:25 AM | 
		
            | BiddyGoat | Aurora | Try GardenSafe Fungicide. It has an insecticide built in and seems to be working.

            | Marv. | On top of Brush Mountain, Pa. | It is organic. There are several companies that sell abt. The name of the product I had was Thuracide. Read the labels as it is certain to be on the shelf. | 8/3/2020 5:04:06 PM | 
		
            | ESheel31(team sLamMer) | Eastern Shore of VA | Thuricide is a liquid form of Diapel dust I believe.Worms don’t stand a Chance against Diapel.
