Boll weevils primarily feed on cotton plants, specifically targeting the cotton bolls, flowers, and leaves. They can also affect other crops in the mallow family, such as Okra and hibiscus, but their main impact is on cotton production. The larvae of boll weevils develop inside the cotton bolls, causing significant damage and reducing yield.
