I woke up this morning to find that my seedlings were eaten by a certain bug. What should I do, even though I did not see any trail of snails.

I have had the same problem with some of my fall greens--kale and mustard specifically, but have had good success from two products: a Safer brand spray and a solution of water and Neem Oil. I tried each on separate plants, and both seemed to slow down or stop the creative lacework some little feller was doing on the leaves. I never saw a snail trail, bug or other perpetrator, either. I'll take a closer look at the instructions and get back to you. If you have a good, organic gardening Website, you might also look for a pepper spray recipe.
