What are some good deterrants for tomato hornworms? I've heard basil is a good one for general pests and tomato hornworms. But I have never used it near the tomatoes before. I grow basil but it's away from my tomatoes this year and it has been in past gardens.
I have marigolds in with my tomatoes this year and it seems it has kept away the stink bugs. Stink bugs love to invade my tomatoes and while generally harmless, they leave the tomatoes somewhat unappealing if they are left to suck on the tomatoes too long.
Check out the Little Gardeners message board to discuss more on tomato hornworms (or other tomato pests). How do you get rid of the creepy tomato hornworms?
