Life Cycle of Hairy bear scarab beetle
Egg The eggs of hairy bear scarab beetle are usually laid in a secure environment. At this first stage, the insect is encapsulated and does not move, eat, or grow. The eggs exhibit a color and size characteristic of the species, often being small and inconspicuous to avoid predation.
Larva Upon hatching, the larvae of hairy bear scarab beetle emerge without wings and with mouthparts adapted for feeding. They are generally worm-like in form, exhibiting a voracious appetite as they grow rapidly, shedding their skins multiple times.
Pupal After reaching sufficient size and maturity, the larva transforms into a pupa. In this stage, the hairy bear scarab beetle is mostly immobile and encased within a protective shell, undergoing significant transformation. The pupa may change position but remains constrained as its body structure and organs develop.
Adult Emerging from the pupa, the adult hairy bear scarab beetle displays fully developed wings, hardened exoskeleton, and functional reproductive organs. It now exhibits the distinctive colors and features of the species, engages in flight, feeding, and mating. The adult is typically the most mobile and visible stage.

Garden and Landscape Pest

When present in small numbers, hairy bear scarab beetle larvae may cause mild yellowing of lawn grasses, but with infestation growth, severe root damage results in widespread browning and die-off. This can lead to increased maintenance costs and replacement expenses for affected landscaping.
