beetles on my rose trees


Question
I have some iridescent black looking beetles that keep eating my rose flowers, they do not eat the leaves, just the flowers.  They have pinchers on the front and are about 3/8 of an inch long.  How do I get rid of them. Please help me, I hate them.

Answer
Japanese beetles mainly seem to love the rose flowers. The will only be around for a month and nothing seems to keep them away  except putting a fine netting such as a  bridal veil type over the rose. Here is a lot of information about these beetles and what to do about them.
