    Found these eating my oak tree leaves today.




    What are they? Should I be overly concerned about them? How do I kill them?

    Japanese beetle.
    Traps made specifically for them are pretty effective.

    Correct name above. They are pests. They'll destroy vegetable crops too.

    Yep
    Be proactive about improving public waterfowl habitat in South Carolina. It's not going to happen by itself, and our help is needed. We have the potential to winter thousands of waterfowl on public grounds if we fight for it.

    June bugs are green. Those look like Japanese Beetles, and they are voracious eaters of leafy plants.

    If you put up the bag traps, put them downwind and 10-30’ away.

    Fox News owner Rupert Murdoch's granddaughter can probably pinpoint it for us. She is sporting one on her arm at her wedding to some other spawn of Satan yesterday...

    Beats me. All I can think of is the following. There was a media push about this earlier in the year. Of course those tats could just represent plain old garden variety crazy...
