The Popillia Japonica. The second most hated insect in these parts next to the mosquito. I hate these with a passion. They are trying to settle in my garden tonight like a blanket of crap. I'm dizzy now for the fumes of the Seven I sprayed on my bumber crop of grapes. I hate using the stuff, but dammit it works and I do not want my grapes to be decimated. I have tons of grapes and cannot wait for fall for fresh homemade jams and jellies.
I can handle beetles, and I can defend myself against mosquitoes, but roaches are basically godless terrorists against the free world.
I hate carpenter ants with a passion. Every summer they seem to invade our house. I've only seen a couple so far this year but last year was really bad. Sometimes they like to make a crash-landing on you cause they suck at flying.
