MAy / J U N E 2 0 1 3 55 The Napa County Agricultural Commissioner’s Office has begun the process of removing our county from under federal quarantine for the EGVM. For this year-long process to be successful we need the continued cooperation of all residential grapegrowers: 1.) IF YOU DO NOT PLAN TO USE YOUR FRUIT: Remove all grape flowers or fruit from your vines with pruning shears. Place them in your yardwaste container and keep the lid closed. 2.) IF YOU DO PLAN TO USE YOUR FRUIT: You will need to inspect the vine for EGVM, and if infected, treat it with an organic insecticide like BT or spinosad to protect the fruit and stop the moth.
