Hi there,
Sounds like sawfly to me,
They have a go at my goosies too,they usually strip some of my bush, but not the fruit, I have to net to keep of determined black birds,
Happy gardening.

they are susceptible to sawfly larva, they look like pale greenish caterpillars. check and either pick of by hand or use a recomended insecticide.
