How big are the cut pieces? I looked at all the likely plants nearest the
nest. The only ones I found with possible leaf-cutter bee holes were the
green pepper and a petunia. The green pepper holes were all very small,
maybe 3 or 4 mm in diameter. Lots of bugs are chewing on the pepper,
however. It's the yard ice cream parlor. The petunia cuts were bigger, but
less symmetrical and there were only a couple. They were nearly a cm in
diameter.
