Is there some type of plant that you could plant near your tomato's that the little bugs don't like? Like Marigolds, or Dill(dill is supposed to be good for hookworms I read)?

@preppinjunkie Ladybugs will eat baby potato beetles, and supposedly planting horseradish alongside potatoes will keep the beetles away... I'm not sure off hand how Horseradish plants with tomatoes.

@theeastwatch Thanks TEW, that's good to know. @preppinjunkie I have fought these things for years and know nothing. So learning about horseradish is great. We always plant basil within our tomatoes as they are repel some pests.
