We last checked the garden on Friday and all was well. We didn't look over the weekend - which is a mistake. These guys can do a lot of damage very quickly! It could have been worse, I'm glad we caught it when we did. @ironshield
I've been raising tomato plants since I was a kid, so figure 25 years or so...I've never even seen one in person before. My father in law has been raising tomatoes for years and he's never seen one before either. We have no idea what happened that we suddenly have them.
I found two more on another plant after dinner. We are definitely under attack...
But on the upside, the Japanese beetles were nowhere near as bad this year as last.

Amazing how quick they showed up. I never had them (hope I didn't jinx myself by saying that) but can only imagine.
