The May Beetle, also known as the June Bug, is a type of scarab beetle belonging to the family Scarabaeidae. These beetles are typically brown or black and are most commonly seen in late spring and early summer. They are known for their distinctive rounded bodies and are often attracted to lights at night. May Beetles are primarily herbivorous, feeding on the leaves of various plants and trees. Their larvae, known as grubs, live underground and feed on decaying organic matter. While they can be a nuisance in gardens, they play a role in the ecosystem by aiding in decomposition.
