Oooooohhh! I live in CA and we have lots of them here. I have given up on growing tomatoes because of these. In the 'hornworm' stage, they can decimate a tomato plant overnight.
They are very large and I am scared of them. I played with moths and crickets when I was a child but now I am scared to death of getting one on me.....they are so BIG!
My grandaughter made me look really bad when she was four and five years old. When I ran in the house to get away from one, she would say..."Don't be scared, Grandma..I'll catch it so it won't scare you anymore"...and then she would. Gave me the shivers. |
