I read through that website and it really makes me think of going ahead a wrapping my trees in row cover fabric this summer. The beetles seem to defoliate all the apples, munch on the gold raspberries and hit the plums somewhat, but don't do much to some of the other trees, and for some reason have not yet bothered the grapes. Oh yeah, they eat my peaches, not too much damage to the leaves. I will look this year and see if the beneficial nematodes have made any difference. And try the bug juice spray. That, I can do.
