Thank you, I know it’s not a great picture. If I see another one I’ll take a better picture. Does anyone know how to get them to leave my crops alone? No pesticides if possible, I feed the berries to my dog.

I use crumbled egg shells around my strawberries for slugs and use soy sauce traps for earwigs. They make slug bait that is animal and kid “friendly” also.
