I have 6 growing in a small area and only a few are being affected. I have posted photos. The only thing I have used on them is tomato food every 3/4 weeks. I have been doing a soap and water bath every week to try and stop the bugs. I have also put pepper around them because I heard this keeps bugs away. When I check on them I am not seeing many bugs, some ants and a few weird yellow/black beetles. I know the yellow circles are maybe from spider mites but I am not seeing any when I spray the soap and water? I heard there is an organic bug spray that you can use but I am trying to avoid that. Please Please any help would be great. Hope the photos help.
Bugs attacking my plants please help?

Some of the damage looks like slugs. Do they ever get slime on them?

Yes, I chopped it up and put it around the plant.. you need to change it every 5 days, i saw one starting to mold and more growing roots! lol
a fresh clove of garlic will do the trick!

Neem Oil! A natural plant extract that will not harm your plants, most bugs hate the taste and will stay clear!
