CLOSED: horrible tiny caterpillars have eaten my hollyhocks to lace!

Greenwich, OH

what are they and what do I do now! I got back from vacation and my seemingly healthy plants are eaten back to the veins. The culprits are very tiny green caterpillars (about 1 cm.) and there seem to be some small bugs with long snouts there also. Is it too late to save my flowers? What can I do to prevent them next year? How can I kill the pests organically? I am a very novice gardener!
I am sorry, my camera seems to have developed personality problems, so no picture!
