Lately, my house seems to be under attack by these bugs, which I swear were designed to ruin our yard as much as possible. Currently we’re trying several methods of getting rid of them, with mixed success.
My question is, where did the Box Elder Beetles first come from? They seem to have all the marks of an invasive specie to me, with the few natural predators and the incredible success here. Are they actually native to the United States? Or are they an import?
Thanks!
