I know Brugs are an absolute pest magnet but im a bit stumped on this one. Ive found one small catterpilla and squished it but im still getting the holes. There's no slugs or aphids or any other visible pest....not even catterpilla poo so as far as i know, the plant is clean. This damage is on most of the leaves. Any suggestions ?   |

Looks like the damage I got from snails, but if not I'm stumped

I haven't a clue andy - I would have said slugs and caterpillars - the way the top leaf on the left is eaten suggests slugs and the small round holes caterpillars but if you can't see anything, I don't know what to suggest. Mine ended up as lacy curtains, without flowers and is now in the Brug heaven. RF |

How annoying, I just hate it when you can't find the culprits. Sometimes they are sooooo tiny and they are always underneath the leaves and you can't see them for looking  I'd be inclined to use a bug spray andy, I don't like spraying but sometimes needs must. |

I've never seen so many catterpillars as I have this year.
