Mediterranean Fruit Fly Invades New Regions
The Mediterranean fruit fly has landed in Florida and threatens the United States. Federal experts, led by the Department of Agriculture chemical corps, seek effective controls as the pest harms peaches, plums, pears, apples, grapes, oranges, lemons, grapefruits, and other fruit. Traditional poison-bait sprays kill adults but not larvae or underground pupae, complicating eradication efforts. The fly tolerates climates above 50 degrees for part of the year, endangering the southern fruit belt from Florida to southern California unless new methods are found.
