Cockchafer Beetles sometimes eat into new rosebuds,
causing them either nit to open, or if open, then one sided blooms are
the result. The beetle stage of growth is relatively harmless compared
to the damage caused by the
Chafer Beetle Grub. The grub lives in the soil for up to three years
- fattening itself up on plentiful supplies of plant roots and tubers.
If you are spray happy, then they can normally be
killed with the contact insecticide containing Bifenthrin.
