Try some plant netting over the tomatoes. We have to do that for the strawberries and cherry trees and blueberries. The raspberries not so much

I need to trade some my local wildlife for yours. It seems that every bug, bird, and little mammal (except maybe skunks), and my dogs pick the raspberries first...well, often not the whole thing, just 1 to 3 quarters then leave the rest hang to taunt you.

I hang red Christmas balls on the trellises in early spring. By the time the tomatoes are ripe, most birds have decided that the shiny red round things are not worth it. :)
