Something eating my tomatoes

Something just started eating our tomatos. We had several about to ripen, went out to pick today and most of them had been bitten into. I looked around and something had taken a bite out of half my maters.(Grrrrrrrrrr) Its not insects. There are areas where you can see teeth marks. I'm thinking, mice. rats or squirrels. Any body got any ideas on whats getting them and how to protect? Thanks

Any groundhogs in the neighborhood? Most prople I talk to usually blame them for getting their tomatoes. You can try a humane trap or if legal, a .22 rifle.
