What is eating my Cabbage leaves?

[sthornton5454]

Just noticed some holes starting to form in the leaves of my cabbage. Have not witnessed any bugs or anything first hand yet, any idea what it could be? I have kale and lettuce planted close by and nothing seems to have started munching on those yet.

Thanks!

Probably young cabbage loopers. I would spray now with spinosad instead of later with Bt.

Thanks Chuck. I will look for an insecticide that has spinosad in it ASAP then.
