Help, Please

Palm Coast, FL(Zone 9a)

Something is eating holes in the leafs of my Brugs. Can anyone tell me what can I do about it. As soon as I get the chance I'll take photo. Thank you. Dorothy

I have no clue as to what pests you have this time of year. Maybe someone from your area will take notice and help you out. Identifying what is doing the damage is the first step. After you ID then you should be able to find a spray at your local Garden Center that will help you solve the problem.
Here is a thread that has a few photos of some culprits that do damage. Maybe you will notice some that are of the same damage and can go from there.
Good Luck

Those darn green worms are common culprits for many of us. During the day they hide under the leaf on the veins and are hard to see. There are many other villians of the garden that can munch a leaf pretty well, so it takes close inspection.

Thanks for the help. GardenGuyKin that link was on target. Guess I'd best be checking for cats. Now to get rid of them. Dorothy

Dorothy, Kell told me about BT for Cats. It is great stuff cause it's not toxic like so many of the things we have to use. I got a bottle of it called "Caterpillar Killer" from Safers. Works great for Fungus Gnats too! (in the larva stage) A few sprays of it and NO MORE CATS! Good Luck!

BT is good but MUST be fresh: check the date it was packed (should be on the label???)
