The adult weevils cause damage by eating the bark and the cambium of most most commercially important coniferous trees seedlings around the 'collar' of the stem, thus 'ring-barking' the tree seedling which usually results in its demise.
Adults are widely polyphagous, will also occasionally attack deciduous species such as beech, oak, lime and ash, the main hosts are pine and spruce.
