What can I do to prevent insects/bugs from eating my tomatoes? I’ve sprayed tomato insect control but isn’t working.

Maybe it’s a bird or animal?

This looks like damage from caterpillars.
Check the leaves (poop falls straight down) below the fruit daily and remove and dispatch any caterpillars.
I’m sorry for your loss.
Look all over the plants, every leaf. You’ll find the culprits. They eat then nap. Go find them!

If it happens to be birds or other animals- try giving them a water source. Sometimes they ll nibble vege/fruit for a drink.

Looks like birds – you need to place some bird baths around.

Always frustrating because it’s like man if you took the whole tomato I probably wouldn’t have even noticed. But instead I have to see the tomato and you didn’t even appreciate it! Lol.

All good advice here. Look for rodent droppings as well. Got over run with roof rats in my garden last year. Similar damage.
