Hi...I'm relatively new to vegetable gardening so please parden my
ignorance. My tomatoes are doing beautifully, except for one thing--some
sort of worm has decidend to eat through as many of them as possible. The
damage looks just like that for an apple hosting a worm guest.
Is there some sort of "typical" worm or similar pest that likes tomatoes?
If so, how do I deal with him/her?
Maybe the tomato fruitworm. Here's one webpage, with good pictures (from
New Zealand):
