beetleJUS!^® Beetle Control for Ornamentals and Vegetables

If beetles are becoming a nuisance, put beetleJUS!^® to work. beetleJUS! controls foliage-damaging adult beetles, larvae, caterpillars and weevils with the active ingredient Bt, a soil-dwelling bacterium that occurs naturally throughout our environment. After eating treated foliage, susceptible beetles and weevils will slowly stop feeding and then die over a period of days.

It's best practice to determine the type of beetle you are seeing in your garden. beetleJUS! is most effective on Japanese beetles, Asiatic garden beetles, Oriental beetles, green June beetles, sweet potato weevils, gold spotted oak borers, soap berry-borers, pepper weevils, citrus root weevils, pecan weevils, filbert weevils and other various root weevils. If you notice that beetleJUS! doesn't seem to control your beetle problem, it's possible that the type of beetle you have isn't susceptible to Bt—the active ingredient in beetleJUS! Multiple treatments may be necessary if beetles fly in from neighboring properties. For stubborn beetle infestations, beetleJUS! can be safely mixed with other insecticides such as Pyola® or Shield-All Plus™. These products work through different modes of action and are often more effective when mixed together than used alone.
