yes that top left is the one we have. I always called the green colored ones June Bugs. We used to tie them to string in the summer and torture them as kids lol Rolling my eyes.

I know it will not get rid of them right away, but that is ok. If it takes a couple years that will be worth it, I understand that it works for several years after it takes affect. I am hoping to reduce my mole problem as well by doing this. Plus the Japanese beetles eat my roses and hibiscus like it is candy. Grumbling I sprayed them w sevin last summer, but only sprayed right on the bugs, didn't spray down the whole plant. I sprayed lower down on my roses because I didn't want to spray the blooms. It did kill a lot of the beetles. I must have had 50-75 beetles every afternoon. This went on for about a month or so. Then they just disappeared one day Shrug!
