    Beetle Infestation Returns To Welles Park Fields

    A beetle infestation has returned to Welles Park in Lincoln Square, with thousands of green June beetles swarming the baseball fields since July 6. State entomologist Christopher Dietrich confirmed the beetles are the same species that previously plagued the park, and residents reported disruptions during a baseball event as the insects flew erratically and landed on people.
