Hi all


I'm trying this out to see if it works. I have an infestation of Japanese beetles on all my flowers and vegetables and hope I can get their picture on here. Nasty creatures; I've been dusting with Sevin in hopes that will work - any ideas out there? Joleen

Mark buys those Japanese beetle trap bags and they work really well. They can climb in but they can't climb out. You don't even need to put it close to the garden because are attracted to it from quite far away. He'd put it on the other side of our lot. Good luck!
