My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Bt and Apple Trees

21 years ago

My McIntosh apple trees have what I think are leaf rollers who have devoured the blossom buds. What can I use to get rid of the leaf roller worms? I've heard that Bt might work. What is Bt and will it be effective? If not, what works?

Thanks!!
