Try looking at night. Not sure where you are or what pests might
be around where you are, but here we have had trouble with
earwigs and Asiatic garden beetles, both of which feed at night.

I would never recommend spraying anything on a guess. Best to
have an idea what the pest actually is and go from there.

Having looked at night and found nothing I am not sure if it is insect or a fungal infection
