Just found my first lily beetle of the year after noticing some
nibbles on some lily leaves. Sorry, but I immediately resort to
Ultimate Bug Killer which seems to keep them in check if used about
once a month.
I squashed the first offender!

I picked four off of mine in the past week. Scarlet lily beetles.
Haven't seen any more since and they're quite easy to spot.

Unless you let them drop on the soil!!!
