Oranges are prone to parasites in advance to prevent orchard losses

The mention of orange parasites reminds me of the most famous citrus incident in Guangyuan, Sichuan. At that time, there was a large-scale outbreak of citrus blight in Guangyuan area of Sichuan, which was mainly caused by maggots. As a result, more than 10 million kilograms of oranges were buried due to blight infection. Caused great economic losses. Next, small farmers will talk to you about the problem of orange insects.

1. What are the parasites in oranges?

Many people like to eat oranges, but no one wants to eat oranges with bugs in them. But sometimes you just can't avoid eating bugs. People with a big heart can say that they should replenish themselves with protein, but some people may be sick for a long time.

The parasites born in oranges are not easy to find, mainly because the big fruit flies lay their eggs on oranges before they are mature, causing them to hatch inside the citrus when they grow up, thus giving birth to maggots.

As far as the current research is concerned, no obvious disease caused by this citrus maggot has been found. However, this can only be used as a reference and does not mean that it is completely harmless. So if you accidentally eat, do not be too nervous, once it appears, do not seek medical advice immediately.

2. How to prevent and cure

The most important thing to deal with citrus pests is prevention. Here are some prevention methods.

Timely treatment of diseased branches and falling fruit must keep the environment of the orchard clean, cut off the diseased branches on the fruit trees in time, remove the bad fruit in time, clean up the fallen fruit in time, bury and burn these diseased branches and fallen fruit in time, so as to avoid the spread of pathogens and breed bacteria.

Insecticide can be used to spray insecticides on fruit trees to kill citrus fruit flies. You can choose 40% dimethoate or 90% trichlorfon to spray orange trees every other week. Continuous spraying three to four times can achieve a good insecticidal effect.

Trapping method because big fruit flies like sugar before spawning, you can choose brown sugar 1500 grams, water 100jin, 90% crystal trichlorfon 100g to prepare 600x liquid, start spraying in the morning, each interval of a week, about four times in a row, can achieve a very good insecticidal effect.
