These little creatures have been setting up shop on my broccoli and cauliflower plants for several weeks. Now they are on my tomato plants. I see these little white butterflies/moths hovering constantly so I assume they're related.
My cauliflower and broccoli are starting to put out heads although the leaves are being decimated. Should I treat the leaves with something to ward off these things?

And what about my tomatoes? I don't see any damage yet but don't want to lose them.

Probably a bit late. But in case you didn't get a reply: Aphids, and their cast skins.

Not related to the with moth/butterfly.
