"Manduca quinquemaculata." That is the real name of the booger -head who has been eating my two remaining tomato plants. Just when I thought the bush plants were making a comeback-
TA DA! Here this guy is trying to take them down. He looks like a dragon or some kind of sea monster. He wasn't really happy when I broke off the little stem he was on and sprayed him with hairspray ( no more bug spray - I used it all on spiders) and then lobbed him over the back fence. I don't know if that will kill him, but it made me feel better.
There will probably be 20 more tomorrow, but at least I got this one!

Dang... that thing is huge! Glad you got the job of deporting him, he better not show up at our house! :)
