Growing your own fruit is a wonderful thing! But watching them get destroyed by pests and fungus can sap your energy and motivation to try again. You could use commercial pesticides but doesn’t that defeat the purpose of growing organically in the first place? There are natural pesticides for fruit trees that you can use to control this pesky problem. One idea is Garlic Barrier…no, it’s not a ring of garlic bulbs around your trees but a super potent liquid garlic extract.
