I found munching leaves on my chocolate mint. I was checking the leaves and a bug appears out of nowhere. I got it on video. The end of the video is be showing the damage.

I wish you could have taken a closeup snap shot of the bug. I do not think the bug is responsible for the damage. The damage looks just like looper damage. The bug in question moves too fast to be a herbacious eating insect. It moves like a predator.
Spray with either Bt or spinosad
