QuestionI 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.
AnswerJapanese 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.
