Get some Tanglefoot and smear bands of it around the trunk and limbs to trap the pests as they climb up.

.grafted about 30 persimmons so far this spring and am having a
caterpillar problem. They climb up the stock and eat the emerging buds from

I never saw anything take place like this before. It makes for an upsetting

Anyone have any tips on how to stop this?
Thanks
