I use floating row covers, chickens, and hand picking. I also wash ALL of my susceptible crops in _salted_ water. It makes the little stinkers drop right off. I toss the water and drowned worms to the chickens, who will run right under the deluge.
Last year a customer accused me of lying about my organic growing methods because she hadn't found a single worm in my brassicas all season.
Go please the world.
