Golden beetles, also known as tortoise beetles, are best controlled by hand picking off of plants. Also, make sure your planting area is free of weeds and that your plants are getting proper water and fertilizer. Unless the number of beetles are excessive, they will not cause significant damage to your sweet potatoes.
