I’ve ordered some creeping thyme seeds because that attracts tachinid flies to help control them but was wondering if there are other plants that are both good for the cherry tree while also combating japanese beetles?

    Milky spore is definitely the way to go for long-term beetle control - I applied it to my yard three years ago and have seen like a 90% reduction in japanese beetles, you just need to be patient since it takes 2-3 seasons to fully establish in the soil.
