I was walking through my yard yesterday and noticed my bee balm looks like swiss cheese! I can see no pests on it. I've had it for years and never had a problem. Does anyone know what might be eating it?

Well, I've grown bee balms in a zillion different gardens and never had any problems whatsoever, sorry. How about a google search? Rest assured they won't die, though, whatever the ailment is. Bee balms are tough, tough plants. If you can't identify the problem cut them back just about to the ground, leave about 1/2" of stem. Burn the plant debris some distance away. They'll be back.
