My experience is to forget TRV. It has gotten me in alot of trouble on smaller trees. We apply at products on a per acre basis and it works fine. The other thing we do is either apply 50 or 100 gal of water per acre. 50 for most things. 100 gal for thinners, leaf roller, mites and oil.

I would think that because apple maggot over winter on the ground that reduction of amount applied per acre in theory would result in a less than proper amount of active material applied to control the pest. The small to large house would not be as important as the fact that each was on a one acre lot. Just my opinion and experience. No virus found in this incoming message.
