Green string beans
Something is eating huge holes in the leaves of my string beans. They are still producing however. What can I do to get rid of the 'eaters'?

Hi and welcome to the forum! Hope you find it friendly and helpful.
I took the liberty of moving your post from the Intro section, to Vegetable Gardening. Since you had the string bean question, I thought more people would see it here who might be able to answer your question. Intros is really just for saying hi.

if the leafs are lattice like, it's likely beatle problem. If whole portion of the leaf is missing then you got a slug or snail problem. slug pellets for slugs. for beetles you can try lure traps for japanese, or just hand pick, squish then discard dead beatles at base of the plants. If you have enough dead beatles the smell will warn the other away.
