Extension Service offers beetle control tips for Maryland
Maryland Extension Service outlines control methods for the Japanese beetle across Frederick County districts. It notes beetle life cycle timing from mid June to early September, egg laying, and grub feeding on turfgrasses. Chemical options include carbaryl, malathion, and diazinon formulations, with milky spore disease as a long term option, applied best in September or May. Community-wide treatments yield best results and pesticides require careful reading of labels.
