Symptoms of damage: peach fruit moth larvae only damage the fruit. After the small larvae eat the fruit, the wormhole overflows with bead-like juice and dries up with white film marks. The larvae ate the pulp in the fruit, and the fruit became deformed in the young fruit stage. The larvae discharge their feces in the fruit and lose their edible value.
