Fruit tree questions:
The place we moved to has some apple trees and peach trees, obviously planted for food. However, both always have tons of lil bug holes in them so the deer get to enjoy them but not us. The apple trees may be near end of life, one seems dead and another not far behind but one produces still. The peach trees are also old and have fallen limbs but they still all produce.
What do we do to keep bugs out of the developing fruit so we can enjoy them too? And when do we do it? (Not against “chemicals”. Very for “easy and low effort”.)
(Boosts welcome)
