On ornamental trees and shrubs, a systemic insecticide, such as Orthene, would be preferred, but By DAVID WHITING Utah State University Extension Service Again this year, the aphid population is high. Locally we have between 400 and 500 species of aphids, varying in color from the common green malathion or diazinon may be used. Apply according to label directions and repeat as or black to pink, yellow, white, blue, etc. They vary in size from to over a quarter of an inch. needed. Q. My THESE DROP shaped insects are usually found on the underside of leaves where they feed on the plants sap. This feeding may cause leaves to become sticky, curl, or turn yellow. They can transmit plant diseases. In some yards, natural predators, such as ladybugs (Ladybird beetles) are doing an excellent job of aphid control, and should be allowed to continue. Where the aphid population is not being controlled naturally, chemical sprays will be warranted. APHIDS ON trees are covered with aphids, ladybugs, and another grotesque bug. They are about a half inch long, slender, black with blue spots. What is it and what pin-hea- shall I do? A. Your description sug-- . gests the larva or immature the ladybug. The spots may be white, cream, red or blue depending on species. These insects consume hundreds of aphids each day and are very beneficial. Let them alone, in many cases they can control aphids without sprays. 0. My apple tree didnt freeze, but there are few apples. Why? A. There are many causes for fruitlessness other than frost. First, fruit trees must of fruits and o a Mjslft)M be of sufficient age, generally years from transplanting. Dwarf trees will come into production earlier than standard size trees. Poor tree health or old age will reduce blossom set. Alternate bearing is common on some varieties. This is where the tree produces fruit every 2-- 5 other year, and may be induced if you had a bumper, crop last year. Most apples require cross pollination, being pollinated by another variety of apple which bios-- , soms at the same time. This year, a good portion of our fruitlessness is caused by lack of insect pollinators. The honey bee does not fly in cool weather or in windy weather.
