Companion planting, crop covers, gloved removal, litter pick-ups, natural enemies, site rotation, and trap cropping are ways to get rid of potato bugs. Potato-feasting bugs often develop quick resistance to insecticides. But they may be controlled by early instar applications of Bacillus thuringiensis var tenebrionis.

One effective natural remedy for potato bugs is to create a trap using petroleum jelly smeared on a piece of wood. Surround the plants you wish to protect and wait, the bugs will crawl onto the jelly-coated wood and become stuck. The boards can be either replaced or scraped off and recoated daily.
