Yes, June bugs [Cotinis mutabilis, Cotinis nitida, Phyllophaga spp, Polyphylla decemlineata] can fly. They just aren't very good at flying in particular or motor skills in general. Specifically, they're clumsy, because of their two sets of wings. The lower set is for flying. The heavier, upper set is for protection of body parts and for balance. The top wings are good at security, but could use additional training in balancing!

Do junebugs eat ladybugs?

Junebugs, also known as June beetles, primarily feed on plant material, including leaves and flowers, and do not typically eat ladybugs. Ladybugs, on the other hand, are beneficial insects that primarily feed on aphids and other pests.

Why do junebugs like the light?

Junebugs, or June beetles, are attracted to light due to a phenomenon called positive phototaxis, where insects move towards light sources. This behavior is thought to help them navigate during their nocturnal activities, as many insects use natural light sources like the moon to orient themselves. Artificial lights can disrupt this natural navigation, leading junebugs to swarm around them. Additionally, light may signal the presence of food sources or potential mates.
