| Call it paranoid or just wondering, but today I went through all my photos from my first year growing tomatoes (which was last year) and saw these red things crawling around. I just hope I don't see these things again, if I do? And what are they and how do I dispose of them? The variety last year was "Early Goliath" Planted in ground with just digging a 15"x15" hole and adding regular dirt soil. The plant produced about 30-40 tomatoesf, mostly tennis ball size and very small (golf ball size) with many blooms falling off in late September. Thanks all, -Mr Beno |

| Aphids when you see a few, squish on sight. |

| Something is eating the blossoms off of my tomatoes. They look like they were cut with scissors. No bugs around. My tomatoes are 5 feet tall. Grasshoppers? |
