I have a few branches where the leaves are being eaten. This is the best picture I could get. I can grab them and they don't try to fly or jump or anything. There aren't many. And maybe 2-3 Percent of the leaves have holes and the edges eaten off. And not very many of these insects.

Do you have pictures of the damage? Somehow I have dificulties believing that these critters do any serious damage. Look like rics to me, but the pic is very small on my phone

I also noticed some of these on it. Could this cause the damage? What do I do to remove these?
