Default Caterpillars on my Dill

I really need to get out more...I totally misread the 'Dill' when I first
glanced at this thread...

I have four dill plants, all about 16" tall. Yesterday, I noticed for the
first time tiny (1/4" or so) black with a yellow band caterpillars on my
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.
