Apples and maggots

Sadgit · « **on:** September 01, 2006, 10:21 »

We've picked a fair few apples from our tree this week and nearly all of them have some gritter inside of them. Anything I can do to stop this happening next year?

Cheers

It`s codling moth,we`ve had a bad attack this year,they ignored the pheremone traps letting me think that all was ok until I ate one.The only advice I could find was to spray,more traps next year I think.
