Moultrie, Georgia Japanese Beetle Control
Japanese Beetle Control, Moultrie Georgia
Biological control is another part of the broader discussion surrounding Japanese beetle management. Certain parasitoid flies and wasps attack different life stages of the beetle, although their abundance and effectiveness vary by region. Japanese Beetle Control can benefit from preserving naturally occurring beneficial organisms rather than eliminating them unnecessarily. Extension research has documented parasitoid activity in some areas, including the presence of the Winsome fly, which lays eggs on adult Japanese beetles.
For small gardens, the simplest solution may involve walking through the landscape each day and removing visible adults. Japanese Beetle Control through physical removal is especially practical when the number of plants is limited and beetle populations have not yet become overwhelming. Extension recommendations suggest removing beetles during cooler periods when they are less active. Collected beetles can be placed into soapy water rather than left on the ground near host plants.
Garden netting can provide a physical barrier against adult Japanese beetles on suitable plants. The method is particularly useful when protecting a limited number of valuable plants without applying insecticides. Japanese Beetle Control with netting requires attention to pollination, however, because covering flowering crops can prevent bees and other pollinators from reaching blossoms. For plants that require pollination, the timing of barrier use needs to be considered carefully.
