Dust to weevils, weevils to dust: maize weevil personality and susceptibility to diatomaceous earth
Journal of Pest Science, 2015 The role of behavior in insecticide susceptibility is broadly recognized, in addition to the physiological effects of insecticides. Curiously, the recognition of the importance of behavior does not extend to the control by physical agents, like inert dusts such as diatomaceous earth (DE).

Biomechanical Strategies Underlying the Robust Body Armour of an Aposematic Weevil
Frontiers in Physiology, 2018 Robust body armor is one of many anti-predator strategies used among animal taxa. The exoskeleton of insects can serve as the secondary defense mechanism in combination with the primary defense such as warning color.

When a male perceives a female: the effect of waxy components on the body surface on decision-making in the invasive pest weevil [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2019 Insects use various semiochemicals for sexual communication and mate recognition; these can therefore be used to govern the behaviours of harmful pest species, and several candidate chemicals have been explored for this purpose. For the West Indian sweet

The Canadian Entomologist, 1884 Curculio is an ancient Roman word, not at all used to denote a plum insect. It is slightly difficult to pronounce, and it certainly fails to inform the popular mind as clearly as the suggestive oid Anglo-Saxon word, “weevil.”Weevil, in its original and right use, designates only insects of the snout-beetle kinds, like the plum weevil, bean and pea ...
