Planting varieties (such as daylilies) that do not interest the insect pest in question and varieties (such as Oriental lilies) that resist infestations is the best way to get rid of red lily beetles. The insect pest in question (Lilioceris lilii) may suffer reduced egg, larval and mature stage survival rates if favorite food and host plants in the Liliaceae family are absent or scarce. Cultivation of vulnerable Asiatic lilies, flowering tobacco (Nicotiana spp), hollyhocks (Alcea spp), hosta, King Solomon's seal (Polygonatum spp) and lilies-of-the-valley (Convalaria majalis) will be unaccompanied or less weakened by red lily beetle attacks if diatomaceous earth covers ground access to plants, leaf litter gets removed, organic controls such as horticultural oils against eggs and insecticidal soaps against larval and mature stages and removal procedures by gloved hand or mechanical tool into soapy water-filled buckets occur regularly each year, and row covers shelter plantings.
