Try these bags. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B1H8SP1C?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_2 I use spring clips to keep them closed, several per bag.
I used these the last three years and I got lots of critters. I use spring clips to keep them closed. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B1H8SP1C?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_2
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B1H8SP1C?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_2 I use spring clips for one and off. Work great.

These work for me with my tomatoes, besides the water which I also do. I use spring clips for easy on/off https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B1H8SP1C?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_2
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B1H8SP1C?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_2 I use spring clips for ease of on/off. Work great and I finally get to eat my tomatoes.
I use these now as they were even eating my GREEN ones. I was tired of going to the farm market to get my tomatoes when I had plants growing but most going to the critters. I use spring clips for ease of on/off. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B1H8SP1C?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_2 And I read last year that once the tomato is blushed the plant shuts down any nutrients or whatever to it. So picking them like yours is okay. They will redden more off plant and you don't have to put them in a window or anything either.
The holes are too big for rats, mice, squirrels and chipmunks. I found that out the hard way with my cages. I covered them in plastic hardware cloth, 1/4" holes. Seems to work for my critters which are also rabbits, groundhogs and raccoons besides the previous mentioned. For the tomatoes, I use stainless steel mesh fruit bags. I think for the rabbits and groundhogs, hardware cloth at the bottom would help, but not chipmunks if you have any. Groundhogs can also dig under if they have enough room to do so, in my case here, they don't have a good place to start because of the timbers. This is why you will see gardens on here enclosed in fencing to try to keep out most critters. One year, I got square tomato cage supports and put hardware cloth around that to try and stop them and that didn't help much, hence the bags. Cloth was a joke, they ate them too. I wish I had a simple solution, but there isn't one. If you have a big critter problem, caging is about the best option. For raised beds, fairly easy. PVC piping arced over and hardware cloth covering it. The plastic kind is easier to work with and you will need to figure out opening and closing for harvests. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B1H8SP1C?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_2
Cage the peppers, about the surest way. I have every critter but deer(thank god) and cage my strawberries. I use stainless steel mesh bags for my tomatoes, you might want to try them for your peppers, I use spring clips instead of cable ties. The cages were made with wire storage panels and plastic 1/4" fencing. The war is neverending. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B1H8SP1C?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_2
Square tomato cages wrapped with chicken wire about halfway up. That is what I did for some of mine when they were being eaten. I have all kinds of critters too. You may also want to invest in these for later. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B1H8SP1C?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_2 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09V7T8L39?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_3&th=1 The clips make it easier to use than the cable ties. You may have to also drive support stakes for the square cages as they tend to lean if plants get huge.
