Help!! 😩 I just came back from holiday to find my lilies have been decimated by these red beasties! Any idea what they are and how best to deal with them! Thanks!!
Thanks blue fox. I noticed the larvae before I left, but there were to many to remove. I used slug pellets but they obviously didn’t work. Perhaps I should have used bug spray instead....

They are lily beetles. They will do that unfortunately unless you get them all off.

You need to squish them all! Horrid things. Is it in a container ?
Yes they are in a pot Hayley. Thanks, next year I will know what to do!
