Terri Gabriel argues pesticides harm beneficial insects and ecosystems. She recommends observation and hand-picking, using targeted sprays only when necessary, and preferring biological and botanical preparations. Rotenone and bacillus thuringiensis are discussed, with cautions about broad-spectrum poisons and risks like birth defects and cancer.
Clark County agricultural agent Arv Dopp warns time to watch for apple maggot problems in Wisconsin home and commercial orchards. He describes the adult fly and the maggot damage, wintering in soil, and the emergence timeline with peak activity mid July to early August.
