Despite previous measures: The first Japanese beetles have flown out of Kloten. The canton of Zurich is therefore tightening measures to combat the pest with immediate effect. There is now a ban on watering lawns and green spaces until the end of September.
Plant material may also no longer be transported outside the city of Kloten, as the canton of Zurich announced on Friday. The first specimen of the voracious pest was found in a surveillance trap.
