hi boop i think they are called japanies beetles.
when you smash them they smell like wet old cardboard at least to me.
another friend of mine says they smell like diesel fuel.
anyway what we did for them was put a loop of duct tape with the sticky

when you spray
it directly on them. It is called Home Defence, put out by Ortho.
Hope this helps.

are around here too, but they just look like
regular little lady bugs, right? These bugs are
about an inch long and have a brown diamond shape
on their back. We sprayed one with all the bug
killers we could find, and after a few days in the
jar, t
s or dispose of them.
