These beetles are VERY bad here, and they do not do much in the way of
discrimination. They emerged on June 7 this year and will last 2 months.
Last year I could not keep the traps emptied fast enough. This year I am
trying the milky spore. Oh yes, maybe because this 6 acres was a former
pasture just before I took it over in 1999.
