I think it is probably Snails or Slugs. Despite their being poisonous. I,ve never seen a Caterpillar on any of them.

Thanks Funky. I lost a couple of baby palms to those sweeties a couple of years ago.Had better check the plants in the greenhouse where it is still warm enough for them to be active.

I think every critter under the sun attacked my brugs, i found slugs, whitefly, and i think red spider mite :((((
ive picked off the slugs and sprayed them, but the good news is the flowers are untouched...:)

Red\ Spider has always been one of my Enemies. There was time when I used to light a sort of Firework that filled the Glasshouse with choking fumes, especially directed at Red Spiders. Now there are too many leaks in the building to use such a thing. I keep it much moister than in old days , they don't like humidity.
