I don't want to kill beneficial bugs, but these seem to be eatings holes in the leaves and flowers of my brugs.
I guess they are some kind of asian beatle. Should I kill them or leave them alone?? |

| Sounds like the spotted cucumber beetle. I'd spray them! They can't bee good if they're eating your flowers! |

Thank you kasha, that looks like the ones.
I don't normally use anything, but sometimes use Neem oil or insecticidial soap. Will one of those work? |

| I think they should. Try it and see! :) |

| I had those one year and I would take a bowl of soapy water out once or twice a day and drown them. I did not have a problem with them after that. They do look so much like ladybugs. |
