Excerpt from The Rice Water-Weevil and Methods for Its Control Clean cultural management in dealing with the weevil as with other crop pests is advisable. By restricting the growth of the various grasses and other plants, particularly the Objectionable red variety of rice, which grow along and within canals, ditches, and water holes, much advantage could be derived toward the suppression of the breeding of the weevils on the uncultivated host plants.
