There a few things you can do about pest eating the apples in your orchard. You can try attracting beneficial bugs that will help control the pest population. You can also be sure to pick up fall fruit and pull weeds close to the tree for basic garden sanitation. A finally resort would be to purchase an pesticide spray from a local hardware store.

∙ 14y agoTo get rid of bugs that eat plants you usually use a bug away spray on them. Like if the bugs were Japanese Beatles you would use a Japanese beetle spray. So identify the bug and get a spray with the brand that will kill that kind of bug.

∙ 10y agoThis is a hard question because it is "wide" or general, but in general, I use pepper spray on many of the insects that bother my trees. For some insects you must kill them with specific sprays or powders or biological methods. Of course, you have to consider that some insects are actually good for certain trees, so you don't want to kill or deter them all. There are some trees that people grow just for the insects that they attract, as in the case of the catalpa (catawba) tree worm (caterpillar) used in fishing. To physically keep insects away from trees, as you do birds from producing cherry trees, you would have to put a light netting over the entire tree. Best thing to do, however, is help the trees stay healthy, and they will be able to handle the insects on their own.

Insecticides can be such home-made remedies as insecticidal soap that is especially effective against post-hatching stages and such store-bought treatments as horticultural oil that is particularly effective against pre-hatching stages. Natural enemies such as ladybugs turn plant-eating bugs into meals and snacks.
