Time to spray for the codling moth
Growers of apples and pears should spray now as eggs are about to hatch. Use arsenate of lead at 14 pounds per 50 gallons of water if using the paste form, or one pound per 50 gallons if using the powder. Thorough calyx cup treatment prevents a large portion of the first brood and protects marketable fruit.
