I'll have to take a photo tomorrow but I dont think my camera will pick up the eggs or whatever it is all over the stems and under leaves of the grapevine I have.

Eggs? Are Clear, you can see through them.

I notice holes in a few leaves and noticed the eggs on the stems and the under leaves.

2 days later, I noticed a couple NEW leaves that look like they were wilting but it was a web like thing pulling the leaf together as to make a cacoon.

Well, I was right, once I pulled a leaf apart it had a white worm in it.

So, I did spray with an organic spray, but I dont know what the heck that is that is invading the grape vine.

Could be 2 different pest??

The spray did kill the worm. As I said, I will do my best to get a photo of the egg and the DEAD worm.

All I could find by search is the vine weevil, but that lavae is different than what I see.

Thanks for any help that I can get so these guys do not take over all my other plants!

I think my camera answered my question. I think it is the Vine Weevil.

Images coming.

Here is the leaf with the worm and webs (I'm guessing the brown stuff is his waste?):

This is the clear eggs that are on the stems and under the leaves.

Is this the same pest (if it is a pest??) as the worm?

Jen, my tomato branches look like that. Then the leaves curled. Let me know what happened to your plant.
