How do I keep bugs out of my apple tree?

September 6th, 2010 | by admin |
Niki asked:


Besides having the tree professionally sprayed how do I keep bugs from getting into all of the apples in my back yard apple tree? The apples are edible (not crab) if you can find one that hasn’t got holes or bugs in it. I’d really like to enjoy the apples from the tree but very few are ever edible.

      You need to find out what the bugs are and try to find a natural enemy or resort to pesticides
