Seed weevils are small insects that feed on seeds and grains. They belong to the family Curculionidae, and are known by different names in various parts of the world. In North America, they are commonly referred to as snout beetles, while in Europe, they are often called nut weevils. Other synonyms for the word "seed weevil" include acorn weevil, pea weevil, bean weevil, and rice weevil. Despite their name, these pests can attack a variety of plants and crops, causing significant damage to agricultural yields. It is important to identify seed weevils early and implement control measures to prevent their spread and minimize their impact.
