This beetle was incredibly smart, and made a nice pet for a young boy. I let it free one afternoon only to find it in the evening flying around my porch light. When I opened the front door, the Grapevine beetle flew inside. I had it for another two weeks until one day it saw the sun light and flew away. I turned on the proch light that evening and it never returned. That Grapevine Beetle was every bit as friendly as my pet chameleon. It would wait for me and grab on to my finger to come out. It loved fresh apples, and acted like a pet until nature decided it was time to go. I have fond memories of my one and only Grapevine Beetle I found on my grandmother’s porch in 1967.

It is enought that you have compasion for the least of God's creations and you have made the little creature comfortable. I do believe I have seen these beetles eating leaves of the passion vine.
