My wife has some marigolds in a pot and the flowers seem to be getting

eaten
by some bug.She has tried spraying them with Provado Bug Killer from

Focus
garden dept.but they are still disappearing.Has anyone else had this

problem
and if so how did they cure it.She has other plants in pots near the
marigolds but they seem to be OK I would be grateful for answers to

this
problem.

Have a good look under the foliage and also under the pot(s) to see if
there are any snails/slugs lurking about as they love marigolds.

Regards,
