Boll weevil
The boll weevil is the most notorious of the insects. There is actually a statue to the boll weevil in Enterprise Alabama. This insect was so destructive that the state paid the farmers to diversify out of cotton production.
The boll weevil has this big snout and it uses it to bite the top of the cotton plant. Then it licks out the cotton until it has no more cotton inside the ball. The boll weevil larvae and pupal do the same thing but they have to get help from the adult boll weevil to eat the top og the cotton plant.
The boll weevil ruined the cotton crops.
