What is Eating my Tomato Leaves

06-08-2009, 10:51 AM

Hi Everyone

My indoor tomato leaves are steadily being munched by something which is leaving black droppings. I've attached a couple of pictures; can anyone help?

I've read tales of the Tomato Hornworm but thought that is predominantly in the USA...I also haven't seen any 4" caterpillers lurking

Thanks

I think by the look of the droppings you have a caterpillar lurking somewhere!
