Strawberry Root Weevil
Written by: Dottie Baltz
Strawberry Root Weevils not only destroy strawberry plants but they can have a devastating effect on rhododendrons, raspberries and mint as well.
The cream colored larvae are about 6mm long and eat the roots of plants. The adults are brown and can range from 5-8mm long. They feed mainly at night and will notch the leaf margins of plants. To determine what is eating your plants, check out your garden at night with a flashlight.
