        A little nibbling is OK- try and flick them into a jam jar containing water when you see them! ...It's a bit of a challenge as they will tend to jump!

          You don't need to kill each & every insect that you find.

          Most will do a little damage, but nothing severe, certainly nothing to warrant spraying everything. ID your 'pest', then decide what action to take, if any. Even pests have a use: they are food for other. more appealing creatures.

            I do normally just leave stuff as Im not bothered as long as it doesnt affect the crop I just popped these two into a pot to see what they were. Im thinking the birds might be at them as there is alot of damage to the leaves. The only bug im not a big fan of is wasps x
