Pick them off. Then get nematodes from www.gardensalive.com and spray those in your lawn. They will eat the grubs, so next year you will be beetle free!

Does anyone have any ideas or information about homemade, natural or organic insect repellents? I have Japanese Bettles all over my Basil!

I posted this in Dems' thread but Liquid Rotenone/Pyrethrin is a natural, non-toxic pesticide that is awesome against a host of bugs, including Japanese beetles.

Gardens Alive! is one of my favorite gardening stores. The nematodes don't quite work THAT fast, but they will greatly reduce the numbers for the following year.

Thank You! All of you guys are great!
