Re: japanese beetles...your help

**C* U* <c*@sbcglobal.net>**

In Chicago 60637, the first beetle appeared about 3 weeks ago. There  
were around 10 on a couple roses yesterday. I saw one this morning, so  
the infestation may have run its course. Home Run Red and Home Run  
Pink roses were the most affected plants. Lady Elsie Mae also got  
some. They also really seemed to go for one of my Oneothera biennis  
plants, but they left the other two alone. Most of my roses were not  
affected.
