Attack of the Tomato Fruitworm!PLEEEEEASE HEELP!!

hasshoes · July 23, 2007

Due to some sort of miracle (and perhaps also the serious dent in my bank account,) I finally have a bunch of green tomatoes! Yaaaaaaaay!!!! It's a miracle. . . I've battled disease, insane Lowe's trips (and employees,) geese, deer, vandals, even termites. . . yet somehow I've finally got a bunch of beautiful green maters!!!

But wait! What are those little black holes in them? OMG$@#^$!#^@%$!@!#$@#!$#!!!!! ALMOST EVERY FRIGGEN TOMATO HAS BEEN ATTACKED BY A TOMATO FRUITWORM.

Google is not helping me much--- WHAT DO I DO (besides throw garden tools out in the street

) I threw out a bunch of the fruitworm damaged tomatoes, but if there is just one small hole IS IT POSSIBLE FOR PART OF THE TOMATO TO BE EDIBLE?

How do I get these things? I read BT, but where do I spray it? I only saw two of the worms, so will the spray kill the worms or eggs in hiding?

PLEAAAAASE HELP ME

I've spent so much money on this maters battling practically every possible pest (I even had to go to the ER after being hit in the jaw by a golf ball

) that I think my husband will divorce me (on account of being a total loser

) if I don't get any tomatoes by the end of the summer. . .
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Thanks in advance!!!!!!!!
