All I ever had to do with my sister's cherry tree is spray it once in the spring and she never had a bug problem. Easy!

Hi, Verencat!
Hi, Yvan!
Well, yours and everyone else's comments about dwarf trees and easy maintenance have won him over and he's agreed to have dwarf fruit trees - thank you!

Broke the four-mile barrier while out running this evening. Massive endorphin high coupled with achy legs has conspired to make me feel...different.

You are very welcome, Am!
I'm trying to track down what the name of the spray I used is for you. All I remember is "Something Oil". I know it stopped the ants dead in their tracks. I'll let you know when I find it.

And the answer is:
Dormant Oil Fruit Tree Spray.
Damn, who needs the Internet?
Most plant care companies make it, like Ortho.
How's that for service?

I don't know the name in English but we call it "huile de dormance". Translates to dormancy oil. Some insects breathe through their chitin (skin). Oils and soaps coat the skin thoroughly, choking them.

Dormancy oil is better when applied early spring time before insect eggs hatch.
Ants are also repelled by powdered glass spread across an area. The micro shards cut through the chitin that let's in bacteria. There is also BT. It's a bacteria that is harmful to most insects. You can buy it in traps. The trap contains food laced with bacteria. When the scout ants and workers bring some to the colony, all ants die. Cheap and effective...

It's more the maintenance he's worried about. Which is odd, as he wants fruit bushes! But a small cherry tree I could easily look after (I can prune, I just prefer not having to climb ladders to do so!). I'm now really craving fresh cherries. And sun-warm plums
Oh Oh craving oh oh
should we trepidate?
