Roll moths (family Tortricidae) pose a significant threat to apple orchards, causing substantial damage to fruit and reducing yield quality. This study investigates effective control measures to manage roll moth infestations in apple orchards. We conducted field trials and laboratory experiments to evaluate various control strategies, including cultural practices, biological control agents, and chemical treatments. Our results indicate that integrated pest management (IPM) strategies combining multiple control methods offer the most effective solution. Key findings include the efficacy of regular orchard sanitation practices, such as removing infested fruit and debris, in reducing roll moth populations. The introduction of natural predators, such as parasitic wasps and predatory beetles, significantly decreased roll moth larval numbers. Additionally, targeted application of pheromone traps and selective insecticides proved effective in monitoring and controlling adult moths. The study also highlights the importance of timing in implementing control measures, with early intervention and consistent monitoring being crucial for managing infestations. The combined approach of cultural, biological, and chemical methods not only reduces roll moth populations but also minimizes environmental impact and enhances the sustainability of apple orchard management.
