mellielong said:Elfrieda, there are several members of the Sphinx Moth family. Only one of them is the Tobacco Hornworm that eats tomato plants and other things in the nightshade family. (Note: the Tobacco Hornworm is found on the east coast, the Tomato Hornworm is found on the west coast. This is why we use Latin names.)


We have both here in Missouri - lotsa tobacco and lotsa tomatoes.
