Ken,

That resembles a tomato hornworm, the kind that chomps on your tomato
plants & turns into a Sphinx Moth. A little different in appearance,
though, but probably similar in habit & control. When I see leaf damage
or frasse, I look for the culprit & remove him. BT spray is a good long
term solution for these kinds of worms.
