Stone Fruit Orchards
Summerfruit blocks — the sweetest crops draw the most flies. Stay ahead all season.
Stone Fruit Orchards
Stone fruit — cherries, peaches, plums and apricots — is the sweetest target for vinegar flies and wasps. Soft, high-sugar fruit at peak ripeness means pressure builds fast. GotchaPest traps and the Pest Tracker help you intercept spikes before they hit grade.

Ripe fruit = vinegar-fly magnet
Traps near ripening rows and cull piles intercept vinegar flies before they reach marketable fruit.

Bee-safe traps along block edges keep wasps off pickers and packed fruit at the busiest weeks of the season.
