They'll eat everything if there are enough of them. They didn't show up here til a few weeks ago, but I have plants that are now going to have to regrow all their foliage before I'll have to worry about tomatoes. :-(

The beetles are more numerous, move between plants faster, and are just as voracious. They're also harder to pick off and don't have any predators here. My plants with hornworm damage survived. I'm hoping the beetle damage will resolve itself over time too. But Im not sure all the beetles are gone yet.
