(More customer reviews)This is my 2nd year with Japanese Beetles. Last year they weren't that bad, so I just picked them off manually and drowned them in bleach/soapy water. This year, I just didn't have the time for that and it appeared my problem was getting worse.
I quickly ran to the store and got one of these kits for about $5.50. Two bags, one "hot sex over here" attractant and the yellow bag opener thingie. Setup was quick and within SECONDS of me putting it outside, the beetles were coming over to check out the action.
Some things I didn't realize until later: You really do need to move this AWAY from the plants/bushes/trees that have the beetles. I had mine sitting right next to the bush they were attacking and even though some were going into the bag, many were just as happy to hang out on the bush NEXT to the bug bagger and get their freak on. So I moved the bag further away, but tied it to a lilac bush where the beetles weren't hanging out. Guess what? Beetles are now eating my lilac bush! LOL So I finally took the bag and rigged it up in the middle of my yard, a good 20 feet away from any bushes (which it does recommend on the box), etc. Now, since the beetles have nowhere to land, they just hang out around the bag and most of them fall in.
I don't have a ton of beetles; it's been about a week now and I'd say the bag is 1/4 full (about 300 beetles or so, from the looks of it). The bag STINKS if you get too close to it. I may have to empty soon. Also, I kinda wish they'd make these a little more, er, not so ugly to hang in your yard. What about a flower pattern? ;)
This product has helped out immensely though I would recommend you get one for the front yard and one for the back. I still have a few beetles chewing up my front bushes as I'm guessing they can't smell the pheromones from the back yard.
I'll be buying another bag soon! Definitely worth the cost.
