What is eating my Eggplant?

11 years ago

I had to restart this topic so I could upload the new photos. Well I did find some bugs under the leaves at night. I don't recognize them and I can't find them listed on the web. I had my work light out tonight and they were all around it so I took some photos. This is what it looks like. Does anyone recognize it? Thanks Ken

Where is the previous thread? Did it have any info in it?
Because if your plants have holes, this leafhopper & friends didn't do it.

I'll repeat the suggestion in the original thread:
Go out at different times, day and night, and look both at the top & bottom of the leaves.

That is why i got the photo of the bug. It was under the leaves at night. So I am guessing that you are saying that this isn't what is eating it, so keep looking? Thanks ken
