What is a "Japanese beetle"?
A Japanese beetle is a destructive insect known for its metallic green and bronze-colored body, with white tufts of hair along its sides. Native to Japan, this beetle has become a widespread pest in many parts of North America, feeding on a wide range of plants and causing significant damage to lawns, gardens, and agricultural crops.
