The message
from "Janet Bennett" contains
these words:

If they are something that is likely to damage the garden, any tips to
discourage them would be appreciated.

Melolontha melolontha - cockchafer. Will eat roots, especially grass.
They become a coffee-coloured beetle and can often be seen at dusk
flying round lone trees, etc.

They are a pest, but IME they don't do a lot of harm unless they are
present in large numbers.

If you find one, just leave it out for the birds - they'll love you!
