I'm glad it is working for you. It has been so hot this year that I
have not attempted to pick them off. In years past, my wife and I would
pick 70-80 each afternoon.

Yes, I do that, too, but other years we have had thousands and thousands on
the grape vines. It's almost impossible to pick each individual one off.
This year with less than a hundred, that's all I've done so far. I keep
expecting the hordes to show up!

My neighbor put out traps several years ago, and just seemed to attract
more beetles, not reduce the infestation. All I have ever done is pick
them off and douse them in a can of soapy water. Then, dump the can down a
toilet.

I like the knot in the vine!!
I pre-ordered several Japanese Bettle traps and we have had none!! We are
usually covered up with Japanese Bettles but I have found maybe 20 this
year total!!

Very little new activity in the insect department. Japanese Beetles are
out in abundance. This ant seemed determined to make its way despite the
barrier.
