During my experience, I encountered the pleasure of assisting homeowners with the control of Plum Curculio (PC). Plum curculio is a small snout beetle, sometimes known as a weevil. The PC causes problems with fruit trees such as apples, peaches, plums, and cherries. With prevention, researchers have stated that if plum curculio is not controlled at an early stage, 85% of the fruit will be destroyed at harvest time. The adult and the larvae have chewing mouthparts which can cause damage to fruits.
