hmmm. not much eats rhubarb, do you know what the "creature" is? I get
the occasional slug, but they're easily dispatched (knock 'em off and
stomp 'em

Otherwise, I'd try my "cure-all": mix about 1/4 tsp dish soap in a
spray bottle full of water and spray the "creatures". Takes care of
lots of pests and your rhubarb will still be completely safe to eat.
