Just have fun and grow your tree, next year it will be better, five years from now, even better. In a hundred years from now, maybe in a museum.

Spray for those things is widely available, but it kills a lot of bugs, that I sort of like.
leatherback So you have "June Bugs", too. Down in Arkansas, they have another bug they call "June Bugs". The ones we call "June Bugs", are grub worm, most of their lives, won't hurt your trees. The Arkansas ones eat bugs.
