Beginner Gardening: Hornworms and Loopers Question, 1 by stephanietx

Something's been eating my bell pepper leaves. Whatever it is doesn't strip the plant, but eats part of the leaves and then moves on. I've looked up and down, over and under the plants and can't find any suspects. I've found one looper on my beans, but not any others. This morning during my morning inspection of the garden, I found a baby tomato hornworm on one of my tomato plants. Thankfully, DH was near and removed the thing before he did any damage.

The question is do you think it's a hornworm eating my peppers or a looper? The poop left behind is pretty big, btw.
