My banana leaves are badly affected
1. as in the pictures some bug or worms are eating my leaves, but unfortunately i couldn't find any, ever since its been affecting all the plants, how to get rid of these? 2. On the second picture onwards you can see a black colour on the tip of leaves is this due to the deficiency of potassium?

Hi Althaf Kkd It's because of the feeding activity of larvae. Please monitor the leaves for the presence of egg mass. Leaf margin necrosis is due to potassium deficiency.

How can I control the feeding activity of larvae? Is there any pesticides or insecticides

Hi Althaf Kkd. Yes it's effect of leaf eating bees. Lets spray neem oil to control this pest. Locate eggs also. 2nd pictures is Potassium Deficiency. Click on green link for checking symptoms and taking control measures from Plantix library.
