Japanese Beetles

The Japanese Beetles have returned for their annual raiding and pillaging of neighborhood crops. The Japanese Beetle was first discovered on nursery stock in New Jersey almost a century ago. It is now found in most states east of the Mississippi River.

Japanese Beetles feed on a large range of hosts, including leaves and fruit of my raspberries.



When the Japanese Beetles aren't raiding and pillaging the neighborhood crops, they are engaged in debauchery to create next year's ravenous horde.
