The Tobacco Hormworm (Manduca sexta) is a voracious eater of the leaves of tomato plants, tobacco, potatoes, various ornamental plants and weeds. They will sometimes feed on the leaves of eggplant and pepper; however, that is rare. They have a worm-like body and a red horn at the rear. For all of the reasons I have stated above, that is how they got their name.

Tobacco Hornworms look very much like Tomato Hornworms. Look at the color of the horns and the body markings to tell them apart. The horn on the tobacco hornworm is red and the horn of the tomato hornworm is black. The body of the tobacco hornworm has whitish, diagonal lines and the body of the the tomato hornworm has V-shaped markings.

Hornworms do not hurt people but I would stay clear of the sharp horn if I were you, just to be safe. They wave their end with the horn in a threatening manner to keep predators away.
