Guava - what’s eating it

    2 responses

Arron starts with ...
Hi. Does anyone know what’s eating my little guava tree. It was fine and untouched a couple of days ago. There are no insects or slugs etc visible, and none of the other fruit trees nearby has been touched - even the cherry guavas.
Cheers
Arron

Hi Arron

Grasshoppers maybe the culprit. They have done the same with my guavas. Hard to catch because they are transient ( they come and go). What I did was to wait for them during my days off and stun them with a mixture of chili and garlic juice, once immobile I crushed them with my hands. Then i got sick of waiting so i Covered my guavas with a fine net. After that no more additional nasty looking leaves.

Happy gardening :-)
