GENERAL INFORMATION
The May beetle feeds on the foliage of shrubs and trees, preferring broad-leaved species such as maple, oak, chestnut or birch, but can also damage cultivated garden plants.
They especially love young plantings, and even grapes are not ignored.
Much more dangerous is the larva of the May beetle, which feeds on small roots of plants, as well as small trees.
Bushes and garden plantings damaged by the larva quickly die.
