Anyone have any idea how to stop these little terrors?! Have what I thought were my first strawbs and turn them over only to find them being munched!

We had a very similar post on here a little while ago relating to cucumbers and woodlice This might help.

I suspect that slugs are probably eating holes in your strawberries and the woodlice are moving in afterwards.

You can get organic slug pellets and try that, I had the exact same problem last week, I'm waiting to see if the pellets help.

The Pellets helped!

We got 10 strawberries today, and not a hole in sight!
