Default Vine Weevil Vs Asiatic Lillies

You can get a product from garden centres,I think it is called provado vine
weevil killer,you don't spray the plant you water it with the treatment
mixed in ,it is systemic so the plants take in the solution,thus killing the
vine weevil.

Hi, Last summer I planted several lillies which did well but were
infested with vine weevil (once they started flowering) which ate all
the green leaves. I eventually got rid of them with a proprietary
spray.

The lilly bulbs (which were left in place throughout the winter) are
now starting to push through the soil. How early should I spray to
prevent another infestation?

Thanks

Theres nothing you can spray with to kill Vine weevil

Make up a solution of Armillotox and water the pots well ......this works
