Fun fact! You might think that the tobacco plant is defenseless against the voracious appetite of the tobacco hornworm caterpillar – the only insect that is immune to the toxic levels of nicotine in its leaves. The plant however has developed an ally in the tiny big-eyed bug, which responds to its chemical alarm call, and preys upon the destructive caterpillars. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=...
