Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients in an empty gallon-sized jug with the top cut off.
  • Hang one solution in each of your fruit bearing trees - works at its best if you begin the treatments before the trees blossom.
  • Continue to use the treatment until the end of the fruit bearing season, replacing as often as neccesary.
  • (rain water will dilute the solution, and lots of bug will too - check it every few days).
