They are really, really bad this year. I've never seen anything like this before. My garden is on a 2nd floor balcony and the beetles start coming late in the morning, like heavy rain, and have eaten all the zinnias, some of the marigold leaves, and most of the four o'clock leaves, They've also eaten the night-scented white petunias all up. Because I don't want to use poisons, I made some tents out of netting and it seems to work. The only thing is, I have cucumbers and squash growing under the tents and I know that I'll have to remove them so that insects can pollinate the flowers (eventually).
