peppers - slugs?

[Peppertom]

Hello

all my sweet peppers this year have ended up with little holes in them. could this be slugs? cattapillas?

i have looked but i cant see any of the little pests

i am growing in grow bags in the green house - and i am now thinking of just getting rid of the plants as everyday i am just throwing away more peppers

what do other people think?

I was having the same problem i just go into the greenhouse about twice a week when it is dark with a torch and scoop the out then put some salt or pellets on the floor

I think it's Snails....I found holes in some of mine....couldn't see any evidence of slime trails but decided to put a few slug pellets around the base of the Peppers (grown in buckets in the greenhouse) and the next day, hey ho, dead Snails!!

Mine is a similar problem as the OP, but I suspect it might be worth the effort of putting down some pellets and salt....

Strange though, as we've got 4 different types of chilli and only 1 of them seems to be suffering (dorset naga - presumably, they like their chilli hot, these snails.....)

got to be worth a try though...
