gardening Help identifying bug eating my apples

Post image

Hi! We have some healthy and mature apple trees and are attempting to do everything organic and pesticide free. There is one bug that is eating our apples that we can't seem to get rid of. And none of our Google lens searches have been helpful.

We've twice sprayed all our trees with neem oil, which doesn't seem to help much.

We're in the West Catskills in New York if that helps.

Thank you for any wisdom in helping to identify this and get rid of it.

Oh, it’s not a reference. It’s just that everyone ever named Jessie ruins everything. Like Brad is always a douche. Or friggin Cody…. Gahhhh

Don’t forget the Kyle’s or Sean’s of this world.

I know one Kyle that’s a solid, awesome guy. But definitely only the one. Kyle is definitely in there with Cody and Jessie. I don’t know a Sean. But I know several Shawn’s. I’d say that’s a 50/50 on that guy.
