Can't figure out what's eating basil?!

Hi everyone, I'm basically new to gardening and plants. Recently decided to try and grow some herbs for culinary use.

Anyway, I have 2 sweet basils and 1 lettuce lettuce leaf basil that are both being slowly eaten by something.

The plants are primarily indoor, but I have taken them out on the porch occasionally for about 3-4 hour periods.

The soil is 1:1 ratio of potting soil and perlite with some sphagnum moss mixed in. Fertilized once with Garden Club organic all purpose plant food.

I tried spraying them with garlic spray, which had no effect on whatever is eating it. I don't know what I should do next.
