Hey

Herse a few questions and answers for you.

If the whole plant looks like this, you might have a litle infestation. THe best way to get rid of the problem is with patience. The best way to clean up the beatles or anything that eats up your leaves is to clean the mwith Hydrgen Peroxide (H2O2) and a Q-tip (cotton swab). It might be a long process but its the best way to control pest without covering your plant with useless bug spray or insecticides.

You can do the same thing if your plant only have 2 or 3 leaves eaten. Just keep and eye open.

If you don't have hydrogen peroxide you can use rubbing alchool but make a half and half mix with water (sometimes its too strong for the plant and it makes some dammage to the leaves).


Hope this will help

Peace

P.S: This is the most ecological way of controling pest and disease, and its the smart way because your plant will not be dammaged by pesticides (frequently, pesticides block "breathing" holes of the leaves that makes the transfer CO2-> O2 and all the rest of the photosinthesis)
