Lacey leaves everywhere - what's eating my plants?

[OneSmallRadish]

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
