Winter control of psyllids in pear orchards leads to good pears in autumn
The pear psyllid is the most important pest on pear trees. It can damage pear leaves, causing blighted spots, weakening tree vigor, and reducing fruit quality and yield. It produces 4-5 generations per year. Adults are divided into winter and summer forms. Winter-form adults overwinter in the cracks of pear tree branches and trunks, with a few in weeds, fallen leaves, and soil. Integrated control should target their overwintering sites. 1. Orchard sanitation. Clear away fallen branches, fallen leaves, and weeds in and around the orchard, bury them deeply or burn them, to reduce the overwintering pear psyllid population. 2. Bark scraping. Spread plastic film on the tree tray

What are the control methods for the wolfberry psyllid?
The wolfberry psyllid, also called pig-snout honey or jaundice, belongs to the family Psyllidae and is a major pest of the wolfberry (goji). Adults and nymphs damage branches and leaves, sucking sap, which weakens the tree, causes early leaf drop, and seriously affects the following year's yield. The wolfberry psyllid has 4 generations a year, overwintering as adults in bark crevices, wall cracks, soil cracks, dead branches and fallen leaves, and weeds. In late March of the following year, the adults emerge from dormancy, reproduce and cause damage; damage is most severe from June to October, and at the end of October the last-generation adults overwinter. Its control methods are the same as those for aphids.
