Scott, Do you have many wasps around your place? Would you consider
hanging some birdhouses or something like birdhouses, gourds, etc, in or
around your persimmon trees? I've been trying to think of what could get
inside the wrapped leaves, and I wonder if wasps would go for them. Wasps
are good to have around anyway as they are carnivores. We have a lot of
birdhouses up and some of them get used by wasps. I like that better than
in the shed or somewhere else I might get into them. I'll bet if you made
some birdhouses with the holes too small you'd get wasps, or hang up 3 close
within 12 feet or so of each other. You may get a couple with birds in
them, the other with wasps. The birds may very well figure out how to get
the psylla too. Donna
