Black bugs eating eggplant leaves
Comments (3)Cover your eggplant with row covers and keep them covered until they start to bloom. Then you have to uncover them for pollination, but at that point the leaves are MUCH less appealing to the flea beetle....See MoreWhat is eating my Eggplant?
Comments (2)Although it is good to have larger pictures, ultimately many pests can cause that type of damage. Pictures underneath the leaves might help, especially since that's where the pest probably do their eating. As always, try to inspect the leaves (especially underneath) at different times of the day, and at night as well (with a flashlight). You want to find the pest(s), not focus on the holes themselves. Good luck!...See MoreWhat is eating my Eggplant?
