My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

blister beetle or cucumber beetle

17 years ago

I know about the cucumber beetle that looks like an elongated lady beetle. I also have a striped bug that is either a cucumber beetle or blister beetle.

I read what you wrote about the soldier bug, and cannot tell a difference between any of them.

I am not sure that any of you can help me or if it makes a difference. Whatever it is, it is messing up my rose blooms.
