White worn like

I found what looks like a white worn about the size and color of the things ( can’t remember what they are called right now ) on the flowers. It was about about 1/8 of 1/4 inch long. Touched it to move it and get a photo and it disappeared into the bud. Has anyone else seen one of these. It is on an outdoor plant.
I have never in all my years of growing encountered one of these!
Any ideas? I do not use pesticides on any of my plants.

Probably time to start some pest control.
Jacks Dead Bug is an organic bug killer that was discovered in an old barn. Its a particular bacteria that kills many different pests. You can safely use it right up to harvest.
It is a spinosad product.

Just fyi, worms inside the buds will lead to bud rot and you may lose everything.

Thanks.
I know how to get rid of them just wondering if anyone else has seen them.
I use a mixture of cayenne and garlic powder, seems to have worked for pest in my veggie garden.
