I have a couple of apple trees that every year get attacked by plum curculio. I haven't done much about it but this year I want to start actually being able to pick some apples. I've done some research on this pest and there doesn't seem to be any organic way to rid the tree and apples of them. Does anyone have any ideas? I did read about shaking the tree branches but I'm looking for something beyond that.
I ran a search and this was the result. There are pages of different ideas, and many come from Permaculture Orchard which I wuold recommend watching or getting the book. That guy knws his stuff.
