Show 0A 1 Sun Advocate Price, Utah Thursday May 6, 2004 Gardners should research before planting fruit trees Every year, gardeners search catalogs and nurseries for unique plants to add to the landscape. Because every plant has its own requirements and problems, Carbon County gardeners should research each plant long before placing it in the ground Gardeners who decide to add fruit trees to their landscape should especially be aware of maintenance and pest control issues," said Loralie Cox of Utah State University extension According to Cox, the pest issue with apple and pear trees is the codling moth Adults lay eggs on or near developing Iruit in the spring Eggs hatch in six to 20 days (depending on temperatures) and bore into Iruit within 24 hours. Once larvae enter the Iruit, control measuies are incllec-tive- , Cox pointed out In many counties in Utah, pheromone traps aie placed in oichard sites to momtot the presence of codling moth and determine an insecticide application date, Cox noted The most impoitant spiay application is the first ol the pn-mar- y season. It targets the first hatching eggs ot the Inst generation. It the lust generation is suppressed, subsequent generations are likely to be smaller. Trom the first cover spray date, control must be on the tree for approximately six consecutive weeks. Control must be in place for another six weeks for every following generation, Cox stated. Conventional insecticides to control codling moth in- clude Sevin, Imidan, Permethrin and Malathion Each has a specified number of days the product effectively kills the insect. Check product labels to determine reapplication timing and number of days until fruit may be safely harvested following the final application. "Reduced-ris- products k are also available from local nurseries or liom mail order suppliers. Cox said "One is an insect growth regulator, which must be applied 10 davs betoie conventional insecticides so that residues are in place as eggs are laid Other redueed-iisproducts include a group of insecticides called Miciobial (bacterial) pioducts have a shoit residual for killing codling moth laivae (seven da) s) k I he attract-and-ki- ll method, such as Last Call, uses pheiomone to lure male moths to a tiny panicle with an insecticide that kills the Becky's Brews Home of the $2.99 Breakfast Hot Spot 613-117- 0 'Where a friend is a gift Latte' you give yourself.' - Espresso - Cappuccino Soup - Salad Sandwiches Grand Opening 17 E.

Pyrethrin (P)gamc) is produced from African chrysanthemum flowers and has a short residual of protection of live to seven days, Cox pointed out "It is important to note that gardeners should use a combination ot products instead of relying on one control method, Cox remarked. "Some chemical controls, such as Sevin, Malation, or Imidan. may only be applied a tew times during the season which is not enough to cover the trees season long. Since codling moth larvae continue to develop in fruit that has dropped from the tree, it is impoitant to remove windfall fruit throughout the season, she noted Mature larvae emerging from fruit search lor places to build a cocoon on tree bark. Corrugated cardboard strips secured around the tree trunk provide secluded places for larvae to spin a cocoon and pupate. However, corrugations must he laige enough lor larvae to enter The strips must 4 be checked every clays trom June thiough September, and must be destiny ed and replaced to effectively eliminate insect larvae. f ill IS.
