To attract ten-lined June beetle, one can use foods that are appealing to them in traps, such as ripe fruit or fermenting baits, as they are typically drawn to sweet smells.

The larvae of ten-lined June beetle, commonly known as grubs, are typically found underground, where they feed on the roots of various plants. To locate them, one would inspect the soil in garden beds or under turf, particularly where plants are wilting or dying. The adult ten-lined June beetle beetle frequents areas with abundant vegetation such as forests, fields, and gardens, as well as places with lights at night during their flight season. Searching for adults involves checking around light sources or by listening for the distinct sound of their wings in flight during warm evenings.

The best time to find adult ten-lined June beetle is usually at dusk or at night when they are most active and may be attracted to light sources.

Warm and humid conditions are generally more suitable for finding ten-lined June beetle as these conditions are favorable for their activity and mating behaviors.
