For those who have not seen rose slugs and/or the sort of damage they cause, here are illustrations.

Here, shown feasting on foliage of 'White Cecile Brunner.'

ROSE SLUG DAMAGE
and
ROSE SLUGS

The actual rose slugs pictured herein are now squished, and residing in my trash can.

Very nice illustration of how those translucent white windows are created.

I guess if this post were pinned to the top, we'd still get two or three new threads per week headed "Help!!! Something's eating my roses!!!!!"

I haven't seen that kind of damage, which is nice, but instead have punched-out holes, which is not, or stripped-off leaves, the latter from grasshoppers I believe. If it's not one thing it's another..

These kinds of illustrations are a very graphic and helpful aid in determining what's ailing our roses.

I've added these to the GLOSSASRY at HelpMeFind, so even if they drift away into oblivion here, they can be found there.
