Thanks Jack! I macro lots of tiny specks - occasionally they turn out to be weevils... more usually seeds or frass!

You're welcome. You certainly do have an eye for the microweevils!

Thanks Jack! I wondered if it was a weevil but this was many times bigger than the other weevils I've found previously!

It's another weevil. This time it's a broad-nosed weevil (family Curculionidae, subfamily Entiminae)
