Weevils are small beetles belonging to the family Curculionidae. They are characterized by their elongated snouts and can be found in various habitats around the world. Weevils are known for their plant-eating habits, often infesting crops and stored grains, which can lead to significant agricultural damage. There are many species of weevils, each with specific dietary preferences. Some common types include the rice weevil and the boll weevil. Weevils reproduce quickly, laying eggs in or near their food sources, which can result in rapid population growth and increased challenges for farmers and food storage facilities.
