Try using homemade moth traps that contain water, molasses, apple cider vinegar, dishwashing soap, and ammonia. I use Langer's fruit bottles and hang them in the trellis system that supports my trees and these trap hundreds of moths of various types per trap.
If only we still had good pestisides
your peaches are nice 😉
Ok…that is where I draw the line…NO Panty Hose on my fruit trees. The neighbors will have me committed!
And now the wuhan virus
What about honeybees want that poison kill the honey bees also I mean I can't spray any of my trees I can't spray my plum trees my apple trees muscadine vines or my peaches and my blackberries and mulberry because of all the honey bees I've got and they pollinate it so I don't know what to do I reckon just leave mine alone and just let nature take its course and then she got a better idea of what to do I have got 12 honey bee boxes full of honey bees out there in the yard thank you and have a blessed day and be safe
we use BT against the Gypsy Moths in Michigan also…many municipalities use this in their tree pest programs….
I learned but I did not enjoy. Nasty bug.
i think ive spotted these early on my peach trees. i actually found a maggot IN the tip of some trees and pulled it out? Still cut off the tips? Also can you please link to the BT, and preventitive sprays you used?
this was so great – i went out there and really looked and identified some sagging and sure enough found some maggots up IN the branches i trimmed. Its because my peach tree does not get enough nutrients and water and so ill take these branches off spray, fertilize and water better
Hi there what effect does bt have on pollinators and honey bees? How do you mitigate any adverse effect of it.
I have looked continuously and couldn't figure out what was wrong with my peaches. Ty so much. It sounds like I have a job on my hands.
Thank You!
I have a problem with my peach and apricot the fruits is rotting right on the tree any suggestions! Thaks
Your vids are very good but I wish you stop drink coffee a week before making vids!
Noticing a trend with China and pestilence
I used beneficial nematodes in the spring and it really helped with fruit moths and Japanese beetles.
Great advices … my issue is my plum tree leaves have bunch of holes on them during late spring/early summer and start falling off. Do you have any methods of treating this?
You burn the branches do you just throw the peaches away. Are any of the peaches good when a tree is infested like that?
Excellent information.

I just need you to get to the point it's too long and dreary
If bagging your fruit, a paper lunch bag closed with a reusable twist tie will put slightly less plastic into the waste stream. A zip tie can only be used once. Thanks for the information.
Wow I absolutely admire Farmers now! Kudos to farmers, especially organic farmers.
I have nectarine fruit inside have bug any solution for that
Would netting the tree help prevent this?
Thanks for all those tips! Do you know if the borers affect these fruits equally across growing zones? I'm in Zone 8b, and just planted 2 young trees last spring. I removed all fruit to let the trees grow in size this year, but noticed one of them still struggled a lot with lots of loss of leaves … until the chamomile planted underneath started to bloom. Maybe it served as a mask. I didn't spray them with anything, but I do have a little Bt.
