I found a bug like this in my tomato plant & wanted to know what it was. I found 4 all together & the plant was near other veggies but not on them, just the tomato plant. I live in Florida & I'm a regular gardener & would just like to know what this is, what vegetables it’s attracted to, & in the event of an infestation, how to kill/prevent them?
