- I dislike spraying my apple trees. I'm not opposed to it, I just do not like
- working with the stuff. I have found that if I mix in my other hobby of home beer
- making I get a halfway decent solution. I hang glass cider jugs 1/4 full of
- sludge from my beer making (yeast and other sediment) in the trees. The moths
- and flys crawl in and never come out. It is amazing how many I catch and how
- the apple yield improves.
