Japanese Beetle Life Cycle

It’s a granular product but is the only one that will keep them off your lawn for awhile

[@gardenglory6624]

but what do you feed them to kill them? what is the name of the chemical control?

[@matt8847]

Get an electric fly swatter. I knock them off the leaf onto the swatter electrocute them and then smash them.

[@pattyjensen1387]

Once adult beetle emerges- how long do they live? Is the Dylox kid n creature friendly? Thanks bunches......patty

[@Sexyness2]

Adults live 6-8 weeks.

Wish there were more pictures with this to show how they look. Although I have seen grubs before, but with this, would have been perfect.

So, what is the chemical to use to kill them directly on the soil ?

[@DBrengartner]

@Lorraine Corriveau Milky Spore is the best way from what I’ve read. I’m battling this little jokers right now in my lawn.

[@chickywilly]

You did a big dis-service by not showing actual pictures. Thank you for the video nonetheless.

He shows a picture of the Japanese Beetle 30-seconds in. Trust me, if you have them in your backyard and on your plants you'll have no issue identifying them because there will be hundreds.

So you don't really need to treat grubs in spring for lawns since they won't do alot of damage ?

[@calvineenigenburg3524]

They may not be as damaging then, but the really draw in moles at that size.

[@cathystoup8810]

That is not true. Our lawn took a ton of damage from them this spring.

Trap these beetles using a commercial lure trap, leading down to a dish of water via connecting PVC pipe, inside your chicken coop. Permaculture: turning a problem into a solution. June bugs = free protein snacks for your chickens.

Dylox is the best chemical to kill them
