Adult Vine Weevil

!!! Kill it Kill it !!

Hehehe Hywel I know what you man but the picture is superb, such a wonderful close up.

Job done Hywel, this was it's very last appearance!
Thank you Bob, surprising comment coming from Hywel isn't it? :o)

Horrible thing but I need it in my fav's so I can recognise it if I ever see one. Thanks Lily.

Why surprising .. lol .. I always kill them :o)

I think it's because your such a caring fellow that loves all wildlife (normally) :~))

Oh I see :o)
All except Vine weevils .. lol

Just so Ian........but there are limits! lol

Elk horrible I kill them any way before I knew what they were , nice close up

great shot lily, nasty beetle

Very good photo of a perfect monster......Glad you got rid of it Lily.......

Thanks but I can't take any credit as he just sat and posed for me (not like chasing those camera shy bees around the garden! ) Lol. He may be dead but his image lives on in GoY!!
Found another today :o(( he's gone to meet his brother!

lol lily

Great close-up!

eeeeek ---evil weevil---- KILL KILL !!!!!!

I paused only to take this pic Valadel!

Good on yer Lily,,,,,,

Mind you it is a good pic.

Thanks Val :o)

Yip - kill, kill. Great idea of Ian's to put into fav's so he can remember what it looks like. I've now done same - although I know what they look like, we've loads of unidentified beetles & bugs around here. Horrible beastie but great pic Lily.

I agree, I had a few of these and had to treat all my pots they caused so much damage. If I see one its instant death

'Fraid so Stevie.....something good about them though....if I find any of their grubs in my pots, I put them in a pot saucer out in the open for the birds. They love them!
