My tomato plant's fruits are almost starting to turn red, but it seems that certain insects (hint, hint) are terrorizing them. So far we've had to pluck off all but two of my tomatoes. Is there any easy way out of this?
An easy way to keep caterpillars from my tomato plant?
You need to tie up your vines so they don't touch ground. Then take some disposable pie plates, pour beer in them and set them on the ground around your tomato plants. Fill 'em about a third full. The caterpillars and grubs will be attracted to the beer, fall in and drown.

Reply:Sprinkle your plants with Seven Dust. Just make sure you wash the tomatoes b4 you eat them.
