Tomato Caterpillars

I was spraying my garden with Neem Oil tonight when I noticed my grape tomato plant was missing its top and many of its leaves. Then I saw the caterpillars. I saw two. Tomato horn worm?? My question is, can I spray with BT in the morning or should I wait? My potatoes have been eaten too... but I doubt that's the same critter. I didn't have ANY bug problem last year!!

Hand pick them of is the best. If you see a worm with the white cocoons leak it in the garden. Using the search feature you can find previous threads about horn worms.
43 years a gardener and going strong with SFG.

There are certain pursuits which, if not wholly poetic and true, do at least suggest a nobler and finer relation to nature than we know. The keeping of bees, for instance. ~ Henry David Thoreau
