Sprays were applied dilute to run off with a hand sprayer (450 psi) petal fall through 6th cover sprays on May 2 1 , June 2 , June 16, June 2 9 , July 15, August 3 , and August 18. Each treatment was replicated 3 times on 6 tree plots (Mcintosh, Cortland, Rhode Island Greening, Golden Delicious, and Red Rome) arranged in a randomized block design. At harvest 150 Mcintosh and 100 Cortland apples were scored from each replication. White apple leafhoppers were counted on 25 randomly selected spur leaves from a Rhode Island Greening tree in each replication. The number of leaves infested with spotted tentiform leafminers was also recorded on these trees during a search from the ground to eye level once around the outer circumference of the canopy.
