The only way I have heard, once you see the worms is to don your gloves and hand pick them. But before you see the worms, there is a preventative and organic spray called BT that kills caterpillars etc.

Yes, hasmall608, That's what I would have said, what fjcancel said. I'm a hand picker in pretty much all of my catagories. (Japenese beetles, I know that can be a daunting task)(and cucumber beetles.....I am looking for an ORGANIC way for those......but we'll see if that exists!!!)
For hand picking, once you realize you have them, the first checking is probly the longest to look. But once you do, then it's a couple of seconds each time you're in the garden, picking veggies... How many did you have???
Did you get a good crop of tomatoes/?? Mine, believe it or not, are just starting to come in. I planted late though...............
