June Bug

Lawns, gardens, and woodlands; they are often found near porch lights at night.

Adults feed on the leaves of trees and shrubs; larvae (grubs) eat the roots of grasses and ornamentals.

They are nocturnal flyers that are attracted to artificial light. They have a life cycle that lasts 1-3 years depending on the species and climate.

Adults are harmless to humans but can cause minor leaf damage. Larvae can be pests to lawns. They serve as a food source for birds, skunks, and other wildlife.
