I very much like the idea of the worms being eviscerated,which is what happens.
Now if your hornworms aren't carrying around those wasp eggs,well, here's what I used to do. Pick off the leaf the hornworm is on and stomp it to death but beware that by smashing it it squirts out green innards,so stand back ASAP.

LOL! The green innards stink too. Last year the hornworms had wasp eggs, but none this year... They have all got stomped to death.
