Cleaning Cactus Garden: Found Black Beetles with Pincers Mushing Blue Agaves

Owner asks if beetles attack other cacti and how to eradicate.

Only Agave and Yucca

Greg: beetles are Agave snout weevils—target Agave/Yucca only. Link to treatment page (Arizona Cactus Sales). Same issue in his garden; treatment works.
