Well it's war with me and the vine weevils. One or more has/have chewed
the leaves of a very precious banana plant that has taken ages to
germinate.
Can you give me an approximate time of night when the little darlings
appear? :-)

At least there is a soil-drench / pesticide nowadays that you can buy,
albeit expensive. Not so many years ago it was a case of just too bad! I
once asked an expert for advice about what to do about vineweevils - his
advice was simple but drastic - "Move House!".

Move House. The standard answer for Japanese knotweed,Giant Hogweed, Mares
tail and now Weevil.
At least a property with this lot ought to be very cheap:-)
