As the title says, tops of 24 beetroot seedlings gone over a couple of days now the edges of brassica seedlings starting to show nibbles. What do we think it is and how do we stop/kill/catch it

Slugs if they are outside in the ground, but can be inside too. Put down boards or empty grapefruit or orange skins & turn them over in a morning to see what's hiding.

get some beer traps made.

they are all inside the polytunnel . No sign of slugs/snails no trails or slime of any description

I noticed my seedlings had been nibbled on a shelf in the polytunnel yesterday so I had a look under the pots and found at lease a dozen slugs

blooming things get everywhere

could be naughty mice too

try setting some traps or place down bait - if it gets eaten you got mice

i've had things eaten by slugs and snails, seems to be worse this year than previous years. i resorted to slug pellets and now finding deceased slugs and snails everywhere.

I had no evidence of slugs or snails in my little greenhouse, but the tops got eaten off most of my cucumber seedlings.  When I moved the remaining 2, there were 2snails hiding round the back of the other pots.
