I need IDs for 2 worms/caterpillars.

1) I am always finding these orange worm-like things in my gardens when I am planting something. (Pic 1) Anyone know what they are and if they are good or bad?

2) Within the last month, I have noticed a lot of these brown/white caterpillars in the dirt (Pic 2). Usually when I am watering a plants, I will see them start crawling away from the water. If touched by anything, they curl up as seen in the 3rd picture below. Anyone know what they are and whether or not they are good or bad?

Thanks!
