    depends on if its the shiny black beetle,or the vine weevil beetle with v on its back,if its the vine weevil its a nightmare to get rid of cause of white grubs underground eating roots.

      ya could try what my cousin has done if ya have the space

      hes made his own little habitat for hedgehogs
      has all the plants etc that attracts them and has it fenced off to stop his dogs and predatoers etc getting in

      once night time comes they come out and eat all the slugs etc in his garden and he has no need to try kill anything in his garden apart from weeds
