Nasty beetle makes its home here
A nasty-looking bug has come to town but this isn’t new: reports were written about it almost exactly a year ago. The Journal says its presence here has tripled over the year.

I saw those bastards on my veggies last year. Not seen this year yet, but now I know to kill them. 🙂

I saw on of those in my back yard in Longueuil about four years ago. Haven’t seen one since. But those Japanese beetles, yowser!

The punaise diabolique was all over my backyard last summer. Luckily I haven’t seen any this year so I’m surprised to hear their presence has grown so much.
I suppose last summer’s cycles of intense heat and rain encouraged bugs more generally. This summer has been a lot less buggy, at least in my corner of town.
