Penetration of the leaf surface is often not necessarily important to control insects that chew, such as Lepidoptera, but penetration is needed for insects that feed inside the leave such as a leafininer (Liriomyzra trifolii) and the tomato pinworm Keiferia lycopersicelld). Penetration is also needed for compounds that have limited photo-stability such as imidacloprid. Once compounds have penetrated the tissue of the leaf, if they have the appropriate physical properties, can move into xylem and/or phloem systems, otherwise they will remain located at their application site. 

The corn-ear worm and the pinworm are probably the most prevalent of the worm pests which attack tomatoes. Their various parts may be found in a finished product to indicate the use of raw material infested by them. 

After harvest, till to control pea weevils, root maggots, and tomato hornworms and pinworms. Fall cultivation also destroys plant debris that can shelter overwintering European corn borers, flea beetles, squash bugs, and other pests.
