how do I get rid of the worms that are growing with the apples on my tree

1 Answer

Answer :

You have to start spraying apple trees while they are dormant. Ortho has the best sprays and your local lawn & garden store is the place to start. You may be able to save some of the fruit if you get a good spray and do it tomorrow.  Spray about every two weeks until harvest. Never when it is windy or when it is going to rain.  Unfortunately the bugs appreciate the fact that we don't want to use pesticides.
