If they are already in the cocoon you don't need to worry about them because they will turn into a moth or butterfly and won't eat your plant. If there are still worms actively feeding (not in a cocoon) get a BT (Bacillus thuringiensis) product from your local nursery or home depot or lowes. You spray this on the entire plant and as the worms feed on the plant the BT gets into their gut and they stop feeding immediately and die within a few days. It is a completely safe product that is used to control worms in organic agriculture.
