This is very informative. Great pictures too. Now I know what that hornet was in my tomatoes the other day!
Hi - I wonder if you can tell me what the black stuff is - are these eggs or droppings? I just noticed these in the creases of my brassica plants and if not eggs, I could presumably hose them off? Thx!
The black stuff is the droppings from the worms. If you see it look for the worms and destroy them. The eggs are tiny and yellow and are usually deposited on the back of the leaves. They can be rubbed off if you find them.
