Not sure if it is poop, eggs or some kind of fungus. Anyone recognize this?

Caterpillar poop? Does it all just fall off if you tap the leaf?

Spider Fecal Pellets/frass.
looks like your local spiders are using your strawberries as a dunny.

Hmmm, and how to discourage this? There is lots of this stuff everywhere...

Looks like bird poop to me.

If they are spiders you should check out the hunting thread.

Then ask some of the Thai forum members for recipes.

It is bird poop. The black specks are seeds from whatever they have been eating. The white is the liquid poo, most of which looks to be washed away.

I see why you can think that, but they are all so freaking uniform. They are all the same size and have the same white thread. That would mean they only pooped one seed everytime. Not saying you are wrong, just not making sense to me...

Didn't realize that was thread, looked like dried liquid.

I think they are seeds and the white bits are the fluff that carries them on the wind, which is now wet possibly having passed through the gut of a bird, pooped out and then been rained on.
