Wisterias being eaten?

My new Wisterias are being eaten by something and the surrounding plants remain untouched,  anyone know what it might be and how to treat it?

Re: Wisterias being eaten?

Hi @Meloncat,

 

It appears to be a caterpillar as they exhibit distinctive half-moon shaped chewing patterns. I'd suggest trying some Yates 40g Natures Way Caterpillar Killer Dipel Insecticide for an organic approach. Alternatively, you could use Yates 750ml Mavrik Gun.

 

Please let us know if you don't see any improvement.

 

Mitchell
