Abstract/Contents:"Japanese beetles feed on the leaves and fruits of many weeds, ornamentals and tree varieties as adults - and on turfgrass and other plant roots as grubs. Grub survival may also be reduced by natural populations of parasitic nematodes. Two species of nematodes have shown promise for controlling Japanese beetle grubs in turfgrass, Steinernema glaseri and Heterorhadditis bacteriophora. Fungal pathogens also may reduce the number of scarab grubs in turfgrass. The general strategy for controlling adults with insecticides is to treat the foliage in early morning when beetles are actively feeding on the leaves."
