Bummer

This is my Ecquadorian Devil's Breath. First pod on the plant and look what I found while watering today. A worm hole. I wonder where it goes. I am bummed, I was so looking foreward to to this pepper.

Inject something in it and kill the worm

Sorry to hear that buddy. Sucks. Be patient, there's more where that came from!

Grasshoppers and inch worms did that to my pods.
Holes were only on the surface so far.
No bugs inside.Surface was just chewed a little.
Seems to happen mostly when the pods are still green and just turning color.
Maybe ripe pods are too hot.
Sweet stuff gets really chewed up.

How does the others look?

The others look okay. I am getting a screen for my greenhouse door, I am tired of battling these worms. They are from a white moth/butterfly. I am constantly swatting them dead every day in their. I keep a couple broccoli plants around because they are more prone to hit those instead and I can control them better. This year they are a nightmare.
