Stepped out to admire my garden a few minutes ago and just about freaked . A large green caterpillar type bug has almost completely denuded one of my cayenne plants of it's leaves . Ate into several of the peppers too . The interweb has helped me identify this thing as a tomato hornworm , and I'm about to read up on how to deal with this pest . BTW , that one is now a puddle of goo and a bit of green skin now .
