Guava Fruit Fly Discovery Prompts More Traps, No Spraying

County Agriculture Officials Launch Program

Posted Date: 7/17/2014

The discovery of a destructive garden pest in Bay Point and Pittsburg is the reason County Agriculture Officials plan to set traps in trees and apply a thick liquid to the tops of selected utility poles and trees far above the ground in an effort to get rid of the guava fruit fly. No spraying is planned.
