Here are two pictures of the larva that I discovered. I'm now trying to determine if they are Raspberry horntail, Crown Borer or
or Stem Girdler.

From my reading, I believe I have Raspberry Horntail issues. Not much I can do but remove the damaged primacane tops

It appears all I can do is remove the damaged tops, and low enough to capture the larva. Also, since mine are everberring (Carolina varity) I should cut all my canes to the ground in February. This will avoid the larva from emerging--if they made it to the bottom in this year. Last year I first year primocanes winter over. Perhaps that is part of the cause.
