New to this forum because I've never had a serious pest. This one is borderline serious as i've pulled off about 20 of these things the last few days. Haven't noticed any damage to plants but they are eating a lot of fruit.

well, looking around i'm pretty sure this is the "tomato fruitworm". got to figure out now how to get rid of them. i don't mind sharing a few tomatoes but am worried next year they may multiply.
