Default Whats eating my veggies?

Thanks. I think I tried checking after dark before but didn t see anything, but
will check more often.

The way the damage seems to be mostly on the leaf edges, it almost looks
more like damage from a caterpillar of some sort. I have trouble with
slugs but not snails around here.
Have you gone out with a flashlight right after dark to see if anything
is out for a late dinner?

Are you sure it is not a little rabbit or other small
critter? It looks
lot like what I see when they get it my garden and they sure
like the
veggies you mentioned.

It s beginning of January here in northern California and

Something is attacking my broccoli, bok-choy,
cauliflower and lettuce in the shadiest wettest side of my
house.
The damage looks alot like snail or slug with the edges
of the leaves eaten . However I can t find any slugs or
snails around and there are no trails that I notice.
Anybody have any ideas?
