So you think you can control plum curculio just by tilling under your trees?  Good luck on that.  That might be more affective in controlling apple fly maggot but the PC can lay their eggs in adjacent wood lots or just fly in from fairly far away.  At least that's the stroy in most areas I've read about where PC is an issue and it sure is here in the northeast.
