The most likely one seemed to be the mite, except it's also called "leaf
curl mite" not "patterned hole mite" so I'm still at a loss as to what
could do such a distinctive look on all the leaves. Obviously it's not
deer, and the moths seemed wrong too based on what little imagery I could
find and general knowledge of feeding behavior (which I realize there must
be more exceptions than moths I know)
