Not every damaged leaf tells the same story.

Curled growth may point to aphids, silvery streaks can suggest thrips, while ragged holes may come from slugs, snails, beetles, caterpillars or sawflies. Raised galls and winding trails can also reveal different pest problems.

Use this guide to identify the pattern, then inspect the leaf undersides, stems and new growth. These signs are clues—not a diagnosis.

Save this pest identification guide for your next plant check. Planty helps you identify plants, track care and get timely reminders.
