Normally I/we capture these little b******s (beetles) and I feed them to various plants.

This year the only plants I have capable of taking them are the Drosophyllum.

It's too early for Lilies so they're messing with my Fritillaria.

Waste not want not

They seem to be targeting one of my Lily tubs, L. hansonii, this year. The early Frits got away with it.
