Apples
"The Invalid" wrote Picked some apples from our tree yesterday and most of them had maggots in. All seemed to have got in from the base of the apple in the middle. Will I need to put a tar band round the tree or are the eggs injected in by flying bugs ? Sounds like Codling Moth (small white "maggots" with brown heads?). Apple Sawfly are similar but they attack the young fruit which fall early. As for control, do a search, I'm sure the RHS site has info. -- Regards Bob H 17mls W. of London.UK |
