I hope, hope, hope the ant is on the trail of the beetle. But probably
not. I hung up a Japanese beetle trap a few days ago. First time in
about 30 years but they're very thick right now. I prefer that they not
eat my Rose of Sharon as they appear to be munching yours. Anyhow,
female beetle sex pheromones and super strong floral scents work very well.
