Lily Beetle Alert! Spotted any beetles? How many? When? Any control?

Recommended Posts

What type of lily are these from.. We...saw 1 of these the other day on my son's head??

 

Just out of interest, what shampoo does your son use? It could prove to be a cost effective attractant for capturing lily beetles. ;)

They also attack crown fritillaries ... the larvae are disgusting creatures which disguise themselves as bird droppings by covering themselves with their own excrement.

 

The adults drop to the ground if disturbed and are difficult to spot on the soil. Catch 'em and crush 'em.
