Looks like some sort of weevil.If so,Eradicate asap.I'm thinkin'there is some sort of bug ID avail on net.Do a search on this forum you should find it.
 
looks like a weevil to me as well. i use one part dish soap and two parts water in a spray bottle make sure to spray under the leaves. if you plants are young and in pots you can use the same mix in a bucket and gently turn them over and submerge them up to the stems but be careful not to drop and wash any fruits well. good luck and stay away from most pesticides as you could make yourself sick.
 
K thanks for the info.

Will have a search around for some info.

Thanks for the help I'll give the soapy water trick a try and go from there.
