This is a picture of my strawberry plant. Am I correct to think the holes are caused by snails or ???

Now the next two pictures are of the same plant. This pepper plant survived through the winter and now it has weird light green yellow spots everywhere incuding the new growth.

1. Not sure, but I'd guess maybe some kind of insect eggs. Probably not a good thing.

2. Yes, snails or slugs

3. Don't know, but probably not a good guy, since it looks like he's eating your pepper. That kind of thing can just be hand picked off and disposed of.

4-5. At a guess some kind of nutrient deficiency.

6. Yes, slugs or snails again. Type slug control into the Search the Forum Keyword box to find tons written here about them.

I think (1) Shamrock? Is a fungal infection -- referred to as "rust". If only few leaves, probably best to pick off all the affected ones and dispose, then try spraying the rest of the plant allover with milk and water solution.

My strawberry plants have chewed out marks on their leaves as well. My rose bushes as well.
