  • Lacey leaves everywhere - what's eating my plants?

    Hi there,

    Just wondering if anyone can help me identify the culprit - it's very eclectic in its tastes, everything from courgettes to tomatillo and sunflowers have been absolutely ravished. The only creatures I've actually found on the leaves have been earwigs and a brown hopper-type insect that I can't identify...

    All help - not least with a killer tactic - most appreciated :-)

    Hi OneSmallRadish and welcome.
    Flea beetles are the problem (probably!!) Flea beetles on brassicas and allied plants / Royal Horticultural Society

      Could it be Cagney?
      Sorry

        Hi Veggiechicken,

        Thanks for the welcome - and the answer :-) Seems a pity there isn't a non-chemical solution, but hey, at least I know what to hate more than the neighbour's cats now!

        Thanks for that :-)

          I only worry about them if they're eating something that I want to eat - so they're welcome to radish leaves as long as they leave me the radish - but you know all about those
