Many of the leaves now have holes in. Could be gall wasps? Or could be sawfly caterpillars? I have both on my Salix caprea, Kilmarnock willow. Cure? Do you need one? Is it so serious an attack as to warrant defensive action? A sawfly attack will defoliate some leaves but there are usually enough leaves on the tree to sacrifice some to Nature.
