Bugs eating plum and peach trees?

what can I do? They are the bugs called June bugs? They hatch on the plum trees (or so it seems) then when bigger move to eating the peach tree.

June bugs and other beatles come from grubs in your turfgrass...treat the tree for insects with a fruit tree rated insecticide or horticultural oil, then treat your turf with grub b gone to prevent the problem next year.

Reply:Spray the trees with an insecticide before the bugs hatch. go to a good home and garden centre and ask them. They will be familiar with your problem in your area and will give better advice than I can.
Reply:go to your local bomgaars and buy yourself a product called 8, it is for fruit trees. I used it on my peach, apple and pear trees it works great.
Reply:You need to spray the tree every 2 weeks or so with this bug killer called "Seven". Get yourself a sprayer that attaches to your garden hose. You mix the "Seven" with water in the sprayer attachment and hose the entire tree ( except the trunk of course). It's safe for humans but will kill all of the bugs attacking the tree.
