The beetle I have seen on mint in one or two gardens is the Green Tortoise Beetle. They are very difficult to spot. <br />As for Garden Chaffer,I have seen more of them this year than ever. They often hatch out and emerge in a swarm from the same lawn and I have seen that once or twice.Mark Evanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02372785801699168219noreply@blogger.com
