[CANUFNET] Japanese Beetle

[Jackman, Natalie]

Hello,

We (Halifax Regional Municipality) are experiencing a particularly bad year for the Japanese beetle. It is voraciously feeding on our right-of-way and park trees, and we are especially concerned about our juvenile trees that have been planted within the past couple of years.

I'm wondering if any municipalities have experience/advice dealing with this. Any information about interventions (or a lack of) that did or did not work is appreciated!

Thank you,
Natalie
