So I am new to gardening but I have had my pepper plants from seedlings. My habanero already has 13 fruit on it and I baby that plant. My ghost pepper and my sweet banana have yet to produce fruit. Anyway, none of that is the problem. Every morning I visit my habanero and check the fruit. I've never seen a problem until now. I noticed a giant hole in one of my peppers and a smaller hole in another. I snipped the big one off and cut it open to find a medium common striped garden caterpillar. I have had issues with these on my back patio on my sunflowers. Not in my front yard. They're destroying my baby I've raised from a seedling. I bought sevin dust. I'm not sure if it will work. Any help or tips would be appreciated.
