how do i keep june bugs from eating my roses?

Answer 1

It's not june bugs...it's probably japanese beetles, my grandma used to go out in the afternoon & knock em off into a coffee can with a bottle of rubbing alcohol poured in it put the lid on the coffee can & they would die... but if that sounds like too much work, spray em with an insecticide...

Answer 2

I don't think it is the June bugs that are eating your roses, you probably have aphids or cut worms of some kind. You can purchase insecticide made specifically for roses.

Answer 3

those are not june bugs..they are japanese beetles...use sevin dust or sevin spray on them...or better yet if you have a neighbor you dont like get them a couple of japanese beetle traps...this will attract the beetles to their yard and save your rose bushes...lol...if your place is big enough you can put the traps at the back of your place to keep them off your bushes

good luck

Answer 4

June bugs don't eat your roses.

You probably have grasshoppers, or aphids.

June bugs are pretty much the passive by=product of lawn grubs.
They don't eat much, they just mate, and die.

Answer 5

You can get Seven dust at Walmart, in the Lawn & Garden dept. That should take care of most garden pest. Seven Dust will also get rid of Ticks on dogs but use it sparingly, not to heave on the dog.

Answer 6

If it is those metallic beetles, you will have to spray them with
a Malacon 50 insectaside.

Answer 7

Use the liquid seven and spry them about once a week.

Answer 8
