Same here. For that reason, We've given up on them.
Daylillies are pretty much untouched.

I have two lilies now chewed down to the nubs on the second attack. We've
pretty much given up on daylilies too, though, since something (or
somethings) eat the buds each night before they open. We're overrun with
deer, who flock through the back yard; rabbits; squirrels; birds; and a
garden variety of bugs. Ain't gardening grand - and we still keep on
trying!
