I really want to know how to deter/control them or I"m never going to get any fruit from my plant.

They have pretty much annihilated the plant. I have plenty of photos ect if you'd like them, of eggs, larve and the beetle themselves. I found this website to be very useful as for the past few days I had nicknamed them "Sh*t Beetles" as they had ruined one of my shirts as I walked past them. Out of interest they haven't attacked any other plant around them, including zucchinis, roses, cucumbers,comfrey and others. More info can be provided (as well as specimens :I ). Just ask.
