Put down milky spore powder for Japanese Beetles. It won't help for this year, but will in subsequent years by killing the beetle grubs that live in the soil. Non-toxic pretty, much a once and done treatment. Get the powder though. The granules need to be applied multiple times.

For this year pick off the offenders as you see them and drop them in a cup of soapy water. Better for beneficial insects as Sevin kills indiscriminately.

Japanese beetles are definitely out now. Found one crawling on a curtain this evening. I’m guessing I’ll need to apply some Grub-Ex to the lawn again in a few months. When I was I kid, we’d have to set out traps, or our Japanese maple trees would look like lace doilies...
