Adult female coffee berry borer (Hypothenemus hampei) on a green coffee
bean. Adult females bore a hole in coffee berries and lay their eggs near the
two coffee beans found inside the berry. Once the eggs hatch, the larvae feed
on the beans, rendering them unsuitable for commerce or greatly lowering their
quality.
