I.D for bug on geranium plz

Hi,ive posted this bug last yr i think for an I.D. which i did get but i forgot to name the photo so i have forgotton what it is and cant find the thread again..sorry for being a gorp and thanks gang


It was on my geraniums x

 

I think it's a Summer Chafer ..joolz

 

Is he bad news guys?

 

I'm not sure Jenny...all it says in my book is " a few species are serious pests" !!!
but anything with the word 'chafer' puts the willies up me....

 

puts the willies up me
??

 

a cockchafer?
(Collins complete British Wildlife).
Think you are right Loli, not the type of chap you, Joolz and me are looking for in the garden,

 

Thanks ladies i thought it was but the name doesnt ring a bell from the last I.D> i had ............maybe its my age
Ive not seen one since so i hope that puts your mind at ease and nothing said made me think i had to hunt it down and squish it last time
Wish i could find the old thread xx

Willie beetle it is then!

 

....Sorry Jenny....Yorkshire for 'Scared'

 

It's not a 'willie' beetle Joolz....it's a Summer Chafer....Jenny behave yourself

 

I tried to tell you before you went live with this one

Now stop giggling about the name Cock Chaffer or i'll post you some May bug grubs
