blackberries--tiny thready white worms

Someone else told me her blackberries had little worms in them, so I looked in mine, and I found 1 or 2 tiny, thready white worms squirming in the core of some (not all) berries. I looked only in ripe berries. They don't look like any of the economic pests listed for berries, but they're so tiny it's hard to tell what they are. I think I may have seen similar tiny wormy creatures in damaged strawberries. Does anyone know what they are? And what (if anything) to do about them in an organic garden?
