Integrated Pest Management Guide

CLAY-COLOURED WEEVIL, Otiorynchus singularis (L.)

Clay-coloured weevils are intermediate in size between strawberry and black vine weevils, and have a mottled, clay-coloured exterior that may look black when wet. Because the life cycle of clay-coloured weevil precedes the other two species, larvae would likely be detected in early to mid-summer in cranberry beds. Refer to the section "KEY PESTS: DORMANT TO PRE-BLOOM" for more information.
