BeetlesGrapevine beetle????
Its been storming on and off all day today and when I went into my kitchen I looked on the screen and I seen this on the window screen my kids wanted to see what it was so i went out and got a bowl. I seen your pics and think its a Grapevine beetle sorry about the pics quality its taken with a web cam. We have no grapevines around here and it was the only one people say they are usually in pairs and there quite large.

Hi Kareen,
You are correct. This is a Grapevine Beetle, Pelidnota punctata. We have gotten several letters recently, without photos, inquiring about white June Bugs. We suspect either Grapevine Beetles or Goldsmith Beetles in those cases.

I just found one of these and posted some pics and a video on my website.
I think I’m sticking to my theory that it is a government experiment gone wrong though!
