So, no luck with catching anything in the trap -- didn't even go for the peanut butter/bread outside the trap. ?? I had put down some Molemax (camphor oil) which is a deterrent so maybe that pushed whatever it was out of the area.
But, the one cherry tomato plant was so far gone I just cut it down -- it looked like it had beginnings of early blight happening all through it, though it could have been something else (damage? other disease?) I suppose.
I've never looked that closely at stems when I've cut my plants down, but this one seemed odd -- I may post a question about what a healthy tomato stem looks like when cut, maybe that will shed light on cause of death.
This stem was hollow in the center, light green around the outside but an inner ring of brown. Sorry I didn't get a pic!
