Edges of leaves are mostly damaged, though sometimes with holes in the leaf. It is normally active in late spring early summer. It's damage is not confined to those trees listed above. Other trees can also have leaf damage. As with the Vine Weevil Beetle - a far greater pest in the garden - the larvae feed on roots during the winter months. The leaf weevils are quite attractive, with their Metallic Green colouring. Don't be fooled! Difficult to treat, but a contact spray of Bifenthrin, or systemic spray (Not too effective on large trees) of Provado.
