I took it off the tomato plant and put him on the neighbors tree.

What is it? I have never seen any caterpillar looking thing that big in my life!

You can see how big it is when it is next to my finger!

So how big are these things when hatched? It couldn't have just appeared out of no where. I mean to get that freakin huge wouldn't it have to have been there for a long time?

these guys will decapitate your tomato plants overnight. Do not allow them any mercy and find the younger ones on your stems and kill them asap!

that's a tomato horn worm and they will eat the fuck out of some tomatoes. they are huge and bled in so well. I dont notice them until i start to see the damage then i look close. The damage is leafless stems and the stems eaten till they are about 1/4 inch in thickness. Just looks like a dead stubby branch.

LOL Better hope you don't have a tree toppled on top of your car in the morning.
BTW, do you hate your neighbor?
No I don't hate my neighbor and besides from what I learned about them is they only like tomato plants and the tree is huge so no harm done.

Last time I took the life of a bud worm it exploded juice all over my face
:spew:......Exactly why I didn't want to splatter it.....ugh ....
