No, we don't have a bettle problem.  Matter of fact no incest problem.  Our plants, gardens & flowers are "treated" by landscapers every week.

well I guess I'll continue to pick them off and put in my soapy wAter bucket!  It seems ninty if you do the same thing in various ways.  Yesterday between DH and myself we picked 25 !  Katerina there were more !!!  These insects REALLY bug me !  Now there on our japanese flamingo willows as well.  I don't wNt to use the insecticide as I do know it can harm the bees ,  don't wZnt to do that.

Back north it was a constant battle with them and my lovely roses. I used a lot of those traps. Good luck.
