Stone Fruit Insect and Mite Pests and Recommended Insecticides and Miticides
Recommendations are based on chemical registrations as of December 2017.
To avoid chemical resistance, alternate chemicals by IRAC code group. (see also page 204 in the 2018-2019 Penn State Tree Fruit Production Guide).
Please refer to product labels and the Penn State Extension Tree Fruit Production Guide for details on chemical use.
