Red Campion and similar discolouration on nearby plants.  Can anyone help with identification and how to deal with it ?  Thanks .

    Looks like leaf miner. If possible, pick off and destroy at the first sign, to break the lifecyle (the grub eventually drops off into the soil, where it emerges as a fly to lay eggs and repeat the cycle). On red campion you could snip the whole plant to below the first affected leaf.
