New Weevil Threat Identified

In the latest edition of the serious scientific journal Bug's Life, researchers have published a paper identifying 23 varieties of weevil that are now being found in the UK that were previously only found in tropical climes.

Fortunately, these are all susceptible to the normal chemical and biological treatments used for home-grown weevils but it is vitally important that these treatments are used at the first sign of these infestations.

In particular, two varieties of weevil are of concern - the larger Red Backed Weevil is the most destructive and the other is the smaller Yellow Spotted Weevil. This is the lesser of two weevils.

Whilst small areas can be treated with a 500ml cannister with built-in spray nozzle, for spraying larger areas we recommend the use of the EGPL Spray Backpack. Read More
