A few days ago I went out and noticed that there was a perfectly bored hole right in the side of my Roma tomato. It was so perfect Da Vinci couldn't have done it as well. Anyway, so today i go out and to my devistation it had 3 holes in it now in addition to its neighbors being munched on. Irritating.
I split them open looking for a worm but nothing. I'm thinking some other animal wouldn't have done such a perfect, clean job of punching thru it. I just want to figure out what it is so i can get it under control before it gets out of hand...
Note: after looking on a forum, it might be something called catfacing. I looked it up, but i'm not entirely convinced about it yet. I saw no deformities on the fruit, which seems to accompany the problem from all the pictures i saw online. I'll keep looking for signs of it though. But hopefully it won't spread any further and i wont have to.
