Lily Beetle '09

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.
