With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Vegetable Weevil sighting in Tokyo on a given day, based on 132 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 119th most-seen of the 1013 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Vegetable Weevil is recorded against all the insects logged in Tokyo (132 verified sightings), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
