Hey! Hope you can help. The pictures shown in the link I’ve embedded show young Pepper, cucumber, squash, and zucchini plants. They’re being chomped away at every day! I can’t visibly see anything on the leaves or near the stems. Both in raised beds. What is doing this and what can I do to save them? Will Bonide Neem Oil help?
Thanks!
Greg

The shredded edges suggest that it is not and insect but an animal like a rabbit, chipmunk or woodchuck, Neem oil won’t help. Drop by and get some hot pepper wax spray which is safe to use on veggies (not all repellents are). Tell the staff you need a repellent safe for veggies and they will show it to you.
