NEVER, TED! Just that after spraying one appliation early in the season for this orchard the owner was amazed and pleased that his apple scab problem seemed to be reduced greatly from the prior many years. Simply a matter of who got there first? Or who ate what for lunch? Or was it just a change in the weather? Ask Judi Stewart about their experience. Does pest contol have to be a heavy metal? Poison / pesticide? Ladybugs? Sea gulls? Cats? BT? All pest contols.. None poisons or pesticides Bob

We used ACT alone on a small orchard that had scab. Reduced it to near zero in one application early in the spring. I think NWFruit club has some reports on the subject too. Bob
Bob:
Are you suggesting that ACT acted as a pesticide?
