DH in Carolina · Feb 15, 2009

What kind of worm is this? I think it is a Lunar Moth. DH

dunno, but i had 4 of them on my plum tree last fall. could not find what exactly it was or going to be.

Do you fry them in olive oil or do you pickle them?

We used to have a few on our tomato plants here in North West Ohio mid summer. I have no idea of the correct name but we called them tomato worms.
We never were infested with them. Just a few on a hundred or so plants. Picked them off and stepped on them while hilling with a hoe.

That looks more like a hornworm.

Looks like it might be worth some money....

some of those things have little stingers on their feet and can make you sick so be careful if you handle them I think the fuzzy ones are the ones

It's probably a Luna Moth. The Horned Tomato Worm has while (or light green) stripes around it's body.

Couldn't be a tomato horn worm, ain't got no horn! Looks like its got lights though.

Blindhawg · Feb 15, 2009

I hope your talking about tomatoes.

You are all confused. Examine the picture closely. I believe you will see that it is a farmer"s 10 fingers clinging to the remains of the stimulus package that has filtered down from the government to him. You cannot see the rest of the farmer because of all the C_ _ P he has to deal with

Nancy Pelosi worn just look'n for bucks anywhere she can snatch'em.

DH in Carolina · Feb 15, 2009

Thanks I did a goggle search Cecropia moth and you are right. They have a short lifespan of about two weeks. DH

Wish horn worms only lived two weeks. A horn worm would have to eat $3 worth of tobacco to get that big.

75c Caterpillar.
I have some wasps here which catch only small green caterpillars to place with their eggs,haven't seen the cp's around but the wasp apparently knows where to find them.

Hello DH,
I bet you are growing tobacco.
It looks like a tobacco worm to me.
