Abstract
FRUIT fly control is compulsory! To obtain effective control of fruit fly it is necessary to combine strict orchard hygiene with bait spraying.
In addition, cover spraying with DIPTEREX will give extra protection to stone fruit and pears.
When the breeding powers of the fruit fly are considered it is easy to understand why home growers and orchardists need to fight a continual battle against this pest.
