Just wanted to chime in that leafminers for the most part do asthetic damge only. The main exceptions to this might be boxwood leaf miners (though I gotta say, I'm not a big fan of boxwoods, so for me good riddence - hee) and maybe some vegetable miners.

Me, I just enjoy the pretty patterns.

Now spider mites on the other hand, they got the pyrethrins the one time that I encuntered them.

Coulmbine leaf miners...
