Are there any pests that specifically attack sunflowers?
I am a total novice as far as gardening is concerned but I would presume the "furry" stalk of a sunflower would put off slugs or snails.We have one in our garden that our granddaughter grew from seed at school.The majority of the leaves have been chewed but there is no sign of slug or snail trail.In fact I have laid slug pellets around the base,but still they are chewed!Any advice would be most welcome.
