    A few of these were bouncing into our back door:

    When put on their back they seem to get stuck and unable to turn them selves back over.

    Any ideas?

    When put on their back they seem to get stuck and unable to turn them selves back over.

    😕 Isn't that typical of all beetles ?

    Any ideas?

    Turn them back onto their fronts ? 💡

    Ta a quick google seem to confirm they're cockchafer's, there are oak trees near our house and general insect moving noise coming from that area.

    Always thought a cockchafer was a brand new pair of riding shorts….

    cockchafer. sometimes known as a maybug. it's a beetle. I think it's harmless, certainly to humans
