In the battle between bugs and peppers, the bugs are winning. All but one pepper was destroyed by something. Same for the yellow peppers and jalapeños 😩. For the first time ever, I’m trying a horticultural spray. Applied it today. Suggestions welcomed!

Oh that's a shame. I've just googled it - maybe a caterpillar is the culprit 🤔

Thank you @Charlotte, very grateful for the help! The horticultural spray should actually help then. It said it deters soft bodied insects. 🤞

This poor plant. I have been unable to spot what is putting holes in it - yet.
