Found the scoudrel.

I was spraying my tomatoes with a mix of DE, Permethrin, Dawn and copper because I was having some mite problems. As I finished up I was passing my little citrus trees in buckets and noticed one of them looked like a goat had been eating on it so I started spraying all of them with the leftover solution. It flushed out the culprit which was a grasshopper nearly 4 inches long. I bet he grew a couple of those inches while eating my citrus leaves. He won't be eating anymore though.
