oriental beetles

[M-technik-3]

So for some crazy reason my yard is saturated with the suckers and I don't have the food they like. I put some traps up this week and wow were they effective filling the bag nearly the first day.

Does anyone else have an issue with these? Moles love their grubs and that in turn is killing my grass roots. I'd like to see these gone.

the stinky kind?

[M-technik-3]

Not sure they might be if squished

[z6ne]

do they look like this and hang out on kudzu?

[ELVA164]

No kudzu in Massachusetts. They look like this.

Whoops, ours are Japanese beetles. Looks like they're different from Oriental Beetles. Who knew...

[willworkfore30s]

Similar species. Used to work at Lowes. I sold tons and tons of those bag traps this time of year. Even the old geezers that knew all the tricks in the book resorted to the bags for lack of a better resource.

[M-technik-3]

Crazy how many just came out of the ground when we put them up. Would like to get rid of the food source but not sure what they are munching on.

Grubs in spring=beetles in summer. Late summer/early fall spread a bag of grub-ex down, and again early spring next year. For now, I'd go with the bag-a-bug traps.

I had those on a hedge at my building .. they devoured that hedge so i got those bag traps. I had them on the ends of the building but my wives business manager moved them right to the grand entrance of BTI Holdings Intl and the bag was full in 2 days So gross.. I had to get them out of there as we cater to a very high class clientele as you can imagine
