Check THIS out, you're not in Canada, but maybe they'll answer you anyway. :D
Pest photos 801

Fdd, you've got to try this site. There are people such as (retired) entomologists answering questions when you've provided photos. This is SO COOL!

I haven't been able to determine precisely, but it appears to be some sort of nut weevil. Try What's That Bug? and What's That Bug? as well as some Google image searches. I've found some that look to almost be your bug, and I seem to recollect you mentioning something about nuts recently, so... :lol:

Have you seen anything that looks like this around?
looks like the green worms we get around here in cali,if so those suckers will fuck over your crop real fast.:evil:

That little green worm is the larvae of some kind of weevil. But, when I Googled 'weevil larvae', most of them looked identical. Some of 'em eat eucalyptus, some of 'em are big on nuts, and most of those that are big on nuts have these loooo-oonng ass snouts. The one fdd photographed actually has a short, cute little baby snout compared to weevils like the pecan weevil. In any event, THAT's a weevil. Question is, will it be as destructive to his crop as some others are to other plants? Fucker has a face, that's cool.

Whaddaya mean fuck all that? I spent hella days searching, trying to find the damned weevil! :lol: I'm experiencing plant envy. It's a little like penis envy, except that I will never grow a penis, while I might possibly grow a plant. :D

we don't have weevils here. just moths. my cat has been catching them for me. i started spraying the perimeter of my garden yesterday with Bt. i don't want to spray the plants just the surrounding area. :blsmoke:

That picture of the snouty bug you took, I'm pretty sure that thing's a weevil. You didn't even see the link I found of the site in Canada where you can send them a picture of your bug and they'll try to identify it for you... did you? :(

i tried to contact them but it defaults to my hotmail then goes to my main page so i can't get their address to send them a pic.
