I've never noticed the beetles in my trees but I can't say I ever looked for them either. I don't get a ton of them (knock wood) so maybe that's why I never noticed any damage.

RE: Iowa State and Japanese Beetles

In 2013, due to the 2012 drought, we had a good summer with few beetles.

I planted my first garden plant today, I found a Japanese beetle grub. I found two June bugs. I thought grubs would be minimal since neighbors in our neighborhood had experienced frozen water pipes which were buried 4-feet or more deep. I was optimistic that our brutal winter killed them, but no.
