You can check the seed and find little holes where the larva has crawled in and if there is no weevil in your area it is worth checking. Last I heard there was no organic answer to pea weevil infestations. This is why certified organic pea seed can be hard to come by some years and on the expensive side. I forgot to check the seed this year, but am still not sure what it looks like or if there is anything new that can be done…

weavels, but fwiw Fedco recalled a lot of their peas this year. They sent
my money back and told me to destroy to peas in the lot numbers
specified. They said that a small % of their supply tested positive. |
