June Bug (specifically a May or June beetle)

Found in gardens, lawns, and grasslands; they often venture indoors toward artificial lights.

Adults feed on the foliage of trees and shrubs; larvae (grubs) live underground and eat the roots of grasses and plants.

They are nocturnal, strongly attracted to lights, and are often noticed when they clumsy fly into windows or indoor lamps. Their life cycle includes a larval stage as underground white grubs.

Harmless to humans as they do not bite or sting. However, the larvae can be lawn pests by damaging grass roots, while adults can occasionally defoliate ornamental plants.
