July

Corrugated cardboard attached to a tree with apples on it. The codling moth will migrate from apples down to the ground or the rough bark to pupate after about 800 degree-days. Obviously, I try to remove any apples that have been attacked when I am thinning, but a late attack or an apple way at the top of the tree may be missed. The cardboard fools the insects into pupating in its folds. I can take it off the tree and burn it. This has helped decrease the codling moth population.
