BT works pretty well with hornworm. We have found that we have a pretty good
balance with parasitic wasps on hornworm outdoors. It they have white
cocoons on them, don't destroy them - the predator will shortly. With
patience and not destroying the parasitized worms, you'll get better control
in a few years. Until then, try BT. By the way, the moths are gorgeous !
They're huge - 3" or so, and look like the bark of a tree.
