The eggplant have been coming along nicely :D , thought we would pick one and what do we find????

A few holes in the skin and cavities where grubs have got in. :evil:

Anybody aware of what they could possibly be?

Cannot find any caterpillars on the leaves/stems anywhere.

Cheers

Lucky

I've seen these before. they never damaged to much of the flesh so you can cut out the affected parts and eat the rest. I had a friend who used to put stockings over them to keep away the larger bugs....
