Another very pleasant method is to "plant" Bluebirds! I had 2 bluebird houses near my row of tomatoes, with a power line overhead. The BlueBirds would just sit up there, watch, and SWOOP and get the big tasty morsels ~ results? happy baby bluebirds, happy tomato plants ! I had very little Hornworm damage !
