Apple-scented beetles

Community and ForumHow to get rid of insectsApple-scented beetles

Good time of day. I live in a private house, just recently beetles 1-1. 5 cm began to appear, when you press them, there is a strong smell of fresh apple. I have never seen such beetles before, before them there were beetles about 2 cm completely black, flying, with crunchy wings and elongated.
Tell me, what kind of apple beetles can be?

These are not beetles, but bedbugs... They probably spent the winter somewhere near the house.

It is Rhaphigaster nebulosa, often wintering indoors, on balconies...It feeds on Poplars...

That is, they do not pose any danger? How can they be deduced? It's not very nice to share a room with bedbugs smile.gif

No, they are quite safe smile.gif. In theory, they themselves should get out of your apartment with the arrival of spring heat.
