Provado make a treatment for this, applied as a drench. You can also get a more friendly solution with nematodes, supplied by Nemesys, specifically for vine weevil problems, also applied as a drench - the only problem is, it's not warm enough yet to use this. You will be obliged to use the Provado treatment, but I suggest you order some nematodes later for application in late summer to polish them off before they become adult to prevent problems next year.
