These pesky little bugs are eating my roses!

I’m very new at this gardening thing so if you have any suggestions on how to get rid of Japanese Beetles please let me know!

    Thanks for the tips ladies! I’ll definitely try the garlic and the Neem Oil.

    Whitney- I am having the same problem, they have some stuff at Lowe’s called Neem Oil you mix this with water and spay on your plants. It is an organic solution so safe for the environment and safe for you. Spay it on once a week, in the early morning before it gets hot. You may see the beetles land on your plants still but the Neem Oil makes the plants taste bad to the beetles. They will stop eatting them. Check out other uses for Neem Oil at http://www.discoverneem.com/neem-oil.html

    Japanese Beetles have low tolerance for garlic.. planting it around the garden will eliminate your problem
