It is an insect larvae called a grape gull midge. They can be different shapes and sizes and are usually harmless. When the larvae hatch they fall to the ground to mature. Removing the gulls and destroying can help to slow bug population however.Helpful Reply -

There is an oil from India, called Neen or Neer oil, available at HD or WMart. It is a natural product, and can be sprayed on the whole plant with no harm to man or beast.... Just had to spray my peach tree and the remaining fruit trees in my backyard, as the nasty little critters are taking over....Helpful Reply- See 4 previous

It is Grape Gall Midge .Have you tried picking them off???Then squish them dead.Orange Larvae will hatch from these swellings. Destroy any larvae you find before they to underground to return later as Midges.Helpful Reply -

It is actually called Neem oil. Please, if you use neem oil, follow directions carefully. Please DO NOT spray or use when bees and other pollinators are active, only on windless evenings or just before sunrise. Though it is used in organic gardening, it Will Kill Bees!Helpful Reply -
