I live in SC and have just searched the web to try to find this pest. All sites mention that tomatillo plants don't have many pests. This worm/caterpillar has been a pest! about 50% of the tomatillos had holes in the husks and this worm is the biggest I found so I took a picture. Please help ID this and if you know how to prevent it/get rid of it organically. Thanks for your help! Also, this is my first year growing tomatillos.
