Dr. Harold F. Madsen of the University of California reports the eye spotted bud moth has devastated portions of the crop across California orchards. The larva ties a leaf over itself then feeds in the shade, sap cements the leaf to the fruit, creating culls. Once a pest of New England and Canada apples, the moth arrived in California about ten years ago and shows a preference for apples and cherries, with limited tolerance for pears and dislike of apricots and peaches. DDT proved most effective against it.
