The tortoiseshell fruiting body
pest of a yellow color with red legs. Adult insect length – 5 mm, wingspan – 5 mm. The larvae, light with a dark head, bite into plum buds, where they eat up a still soft stone, and then the flesh, filling them with excrement. In the event of a large number of pest occurrences, almost all buds are destroyed. Spraying is carried out just after the flower petals have fallen.
Apple fruit
a yellow caterpillar (sometimes it turns pink), length to 20 mm. The butterfly has wings with a span 20 mm. The caterpillar bites under the fruit's skin and in the husband digs the pavement towards the seed chambers. Damaged fruit, the so-called. wormy, fall prematurely. The exact eradication dates are set by the forecasting and signaling service and communicated through messages. However, young seedlings can be placed in foil or parchment bags, which takes off on 3…4 weeks before harvesting the fruit; then the use of chemicals is unnecessary.
