I planted cabbage, cauliflower, and broccoli last week and noticed
something was eating them.....thought it was slugs. I went out tonight
with a flash light and found 1/4 inch long mouse gray beetles with a
long snout eating the plants. Looks like some kind of weevil.
Can someone on the list tell me what these beetles are and how to
control them organically? Thanks, Keith Lawyer
