help
how do you get rid of these. I know that they are scarite grond beetles (Coleoptera:Caraabidae)but I can't find away to rid these things of my home. So far all I can find is that they are considered beneficial, as they are voracious predators on other small arthropods.
Got any ideas???

help please
These bugs are scarite ground beetles. Problem is I can't find a way to get rid of them. I have them in my yard and home now. They say there is no way to manage this things but they are considered a beneficial as they are voracious predators on other small arthropods.
