Japanese beetles, known for their shiny green and bronze appearance, are actively flying and feeding on various plants, including roses, cannas, apple trees, and even pine trees. They cause significant damage by chewing on leaves, buds, and flowers. They might give you a slight tickle but aren't slimy. Act swiftly as they are agile fliers, especially during early morning and evening. Bear in mind that bag traps only capture around 75% of the beetles they attract, so position them far from valuable plants.

Fidelis Care and Partners Bring Healthy Cooking Demonstrations to the Rochester Public Market Fidelis Care, Wellcare, and partners Cornell Cooperative Extension and the University of Rochester Medical Center’s Wilmot Cancer Institute launched a series of free healthy cooking demonstrations at the Rochester Public Market this spring. The May event focused on the observances of Mental Health Awareness Month, National Women’s Health Week, and Skin Cancer Awareness Month. Cornell Cooperative Extension Nutrition Educator Iluminada Vilca shared healthy eating tips with the audience. “Today, we are making Very Berry Muesli,” Vilca said. “It’s full of antioxidants and vitamins and whole grains. Perfect for breakfast. It has dried fruits. It has nuts. It has oats. Some dairy, which is yogurt and milk. This recipe helps our brain with oils in the nuts, the fruits have healthy antioxidants, and the dairy and whole grains complement our gut health.” Wilmot Cancer Institute Senior Regional Outreach Manager Sarah Merritt said, “Our diet is so important in disease prevention, and we are so happy to partner with Fidelis Care to bring this information to the community. We are also giving away free sunscreen to those who attend our cooking demonstrations. We recommend 30 SPF for all skin types and colors. Everybody should be wearing it.” Fidelis Care and Wellcare representatives also were on hand to share health insurance information. "We’re here to answer questions and help people who need to enroll or renew their insurance," Fidelis Care Community Relations Specialist Jayslynn Antonetti said. " Our message here is that healthy eating and maintaining consistent health insurance coverage are two critical pieces for overall health.”
