I have four dill plants, all about 16" tall. Yesterday, I noticed for the

Dill.

Should I pick them off? How much damage will they do?

I wouldn't mind have more butterflys, but not at the expense of dill.

They're probably black swallow tail butterfly caterpillars. If you want
to save your dill move them over to some parsley that is ready to bolt.
