Help, my trees are covered with June bugs!?

I have never seen damage done by an June bug and they only last a few weeks, don't worry, be happy.

Encourage natural predators- toads to live in the area. They eat the heck out of june bugs, emerging grubs and beetles and it is a environmentally friendly thing to do, remember folks systemic tree control makes the entire tree toxic for all the wildlife who inhabit it( the good ones and the bad ones). Japaneese beetles are active during daylight, june bugs are active at night, also is the tree lighted? the june bugs are attracted to light and each other. Toads need a place to hide during the heat of the day.

This sounds more like Japanese Beetles than June Bugs. They look the same but the Japanese Beetles are a bit smaller and they will damage your trees, shrubs, plants, etc. I suggest you do some research to see if this is what you have and how to treat for them.

as much as i hate to ever suggest pesticides, there's a product by bayer called tree & shrub control. (it comes in a blue bottle) it's a systemic that you mix with water and pour around the bottom of the tree/shrub. it lasts for 9 months to a year and is VERY effective without having to actually SPRAY anything. i don't know where you live, but it does seem a little early for japanese beetles. regardless, i use it on my mom's roses every year to get rid of the japanese beetles and it works like a charm.

The sap is condensed plant food made by the tree, and contains sugar. The bugs are after the sugar in the sap. When a tree is wounded, it oozes sap to cover and protect the wound. That is how Maple Sugar is collected, a wound is cut in the bark of the Sugar Maple tree. The tree oozes sap to protect the wound. The sap is collected in buckets and boiled to make it thick by evaporating the water in the sap, and then the sap is sold as Maple Sugar. The sap also oozes over certain types of wood boring insects and smothers them. This protects the tree.

Buy some " systemic" Bayer for example...Systemic is a pesticide that the plant is drinking... You better spray it on the roots that the tree absorb it. The Bayer last about 6 months. Anytime an insect will try to 'eat ' your tree it will die. You can find it at the Home Depot.

June bugs do not hurt anything and they will not stay long.
