I have found some of those horrific red beetles on my lilies. What do I do to get rid of them? It doesn't have to be organic or all natural. I have no problem using chemicals!!! |

Do you mean spider mites? The teeny tiny ones that have infested this golf club? Attachments:  |

Hi, I have had these lovely red beetles for the past few years on my stargazers. I use an insecticide made by Bayer. Can't remember the exact name of the insecticide but you can buy it everywhere. It will keep them away for a while. I usually have to spray the plant twice a season. Make sure to keep an eye of them or they will ruin your lillies. |

I remember hearing about those. Aren't they called lily leaf beetles? |

Iam considering uprooting and discarding them totally then burning hte ground they were planted in as the eggs are dropped into the soil and mutate
