Does Vine Weevil attack Pyracantha which is growing out doors?





I've never known it to, and I'm surrounded by Pyracantha and have been
for 30yrs. What damage are you seeing?

==============================================

We found one of the little devils in the house this morning and one Lily
plant has been looking very poorly for quite a few days now and we knew not
why and our thoughts turned to the Pyracantha around the front door which
has been very sick for a very long time. I did post some pictures of it a
couple of years ago and sought advice then. It was pruned back, bad stuff
removed and it showed signs of recovery, but recently has taken a downward
turn. We put two and two together and made five ;-) but thanks for the
knowledge you have experienced.
