Default New here... pepper pest bug question

Makes tiny holes in the leaves, then the leaves fold up around a fuzzy mass.
What is it, and how do I get rid of it organically please.

Hi! Are the bugs tiny black beetles that jump? Only, a few of my edible plants have succumbed to these pests recently esp my aubergines. If so, they are flea beetles & they sit mainly under the leaves & eat their way through your plants really quickly! Yellow sticky cards or veg bugclear i'm told are best.
Good luck!!
