Blister beetles

Submitted by MikeBerke on Mon, 10/18/2010 - 8:53am.

Hi Guys,

Thanks in advance for any help you might send my way.

We had dirt provided by RG&E as fill for an upgrade of our neighborhood gas line. Just recently (last 2 weeks) we noticed large black "bugs" in that area of the lawn. They were identified as blister beetles. Fortunately, nobody touched one!

What is the best way to eradicate them?

Thanks again,

Mike Berke
