    In Canada we have a solution developed by Ministry of Agriculture. There is a piece of wire to put on the apple tree; the moth is
    attracted by a hormone to get to the wire and not to the apples. It works wonderfully; no insect spray needed.

      Good question! The farm owners purchase those "wands" from a farm supply that requires an established account to buy their products online. BUT, there are lots of other suppliers of this type of product. Google this phrase and you'll find lots of them: "codling moth sex pheromones products". Sorry, can't recommend one of them, but they all have similar ingredients.

Best to be safe and put them out ASAP.

      Ok, after more googling, it appears that these are only effective for ten or more acre orchards. They are very pricey too as they are sold in bulk. That’s what I’ve found so far.

      I seriously doubt it was knowingly done, he's probably just assuming that since they're available through UCSC that they're available to the general public. I'm going to contact the manufacturer and see if there's a way I can get my hand on some. Will update.
