June to August is the period of active and breeding of the mature beetle.
Last summer, there was a large-scale outbreak in the Beijing Tianjin Hebei region, which sparked discussions among netizens
Experts:
Chinese herbivorous beetles generally do not carry any pathogens
Don't worry too much
Zheng Xiaoyang, a natural science popularization writer and invited guest of CCTV, said that the Chinese beetle is very similar to the cockroach in appearance, but its "nature" is completely different. The cockroach we are referring to belongs to the order Cockroaches, which is not the same species as the Coleoptera, to which the Chinese beetle belongs. At the same time, the reproductive ability of the Chinese beetle is not as strong as that of cockroaches. Although it looks like a cockroach, it usually doesn't carry any bacteria. So there's no need to worry too much about their appearance.
Zheng Xiaoyang said that most of the beetles are not pests because they prefer meat and various insects are on their menu. The Chinese mature beetle is no exception. They mainly feed on tender plant seeds and soft small insects, and have no harm to humans or the environment. The mature beetle is also a natural enemy of many pests, such as mosquitoes, fly larvae, and Lepidoptera pests. From this perspective, it can also be said that it is a beneficial insect.

The widespread occurrence of Chinese herbivorous beetles is related to rainfall. Chinese herbivorous beetles are easily found in damp and stuffy places, and have strong vitality. "The appearance of mature beetles is actually a normal phenomenon. August is the period when mature beetles are active and reproduce. Moreover, they are active at night and are easily attracted by light, which has a certain 'phototaxis', so they will appear in large numbers in our field of vision," said some people.
Doors and windows are the best passage for insects to enter the indoor environment. After discovering this type of insect, it is necessary to first check the doors and windows, especially the screen windows, for any gaps.
If you fly into your home, just use tools to sweep them out and clean them up; Alternatively, simple physical methods such as closing the screen windows can be used to handle it appropriately. At the same time, we can also use their phototaxis to turn off some unnecessary lights.
