Japanese bettles
Have any of you out there got a sure fire way of getting rid of or
controlling these pests? For 2 years in a row now they have infested my plum, cherry,and apple trees. Also my 3 grape vines. They appear to start coming around Mothers day. I've tried malathion which temporarily helped, and a mixture of sevin concentrate mixed with dawn dish soap and water. It controlled them for a day, but the next day they were at it again. The ground would be covered with dead ones, but the next day there would be new ones that arrived. I was so fed up that I was considering cutting the trees down. I'm afraid to eat any fruit if there is any because of all the chemicals. I live in Springfield, Illinois. I've never seen any beetles until 1907. I would appreciate any help or suggestion any of you out there may have. Thanks for your help. |
