| Work out what it is first. Then squish it if you don't want it. There are no magic bullet chemicals which will stop all pests. |

| lychas - As Nathan said, try and find out what it is first. A likely guess would be a caterpillar doing the damage. If you pick up the growth and search along the undersides you'll most likely find it/them hiding there. Easiest solution is to remove the pests, or spray with an insecticide like Folimat. |
