In this video, I show how to protect the fruit off the trees. One of the main problems is the plum curculio bug. It will inject its larvae into the fruit and repeat this process multiple times. The larvae will eat the inside of the fruit and make it no good for consumption. Using the fruit protection bags will stop this bug. The key is to cover the fruit in the early stages. I will use Sorround Kaolin Clay once the flowers fall off the tree. I wait because I don't want the spray to stop the bugs from pollinating the fruit. The Kaolin Clay will stop the bugs from damaging the fruit. The plum curculio will not mess with the fruit because of the Clay. These are the 2 best options when protecting your fruit. The Kaolin Clay is organic.
