Art, Stu, or any other of you crazy sobs around here.
My cousin asked me, she has probably 8-12 apple trees and is more of a nature type of person as far as don't spray something that causes side affects etc. Heck I seen an article once that toothpaste causes cancer, I digress.
I can't spray for them what I normally would so I said I'd ask around, so we aren't talking fungus per say but more pest damage. I'm sure if there is something to spray you'd have to do it REALLY often with an organic option. Any of you all aware of anything they could try?

I've not used "organic" sprays. The thing I hear mentioned most by organic growers is to spray Surround (Kaolin clay). You have to re-apply after decent rainfall I believe. Neem oil seems to get thrown around for most every issue by organic growers too.
I believe there are OMRI approved insecticides, but I don't know any names.
That's about all the help I am.

I haven't used organic sprays either, I generally go with napalm types.
