   At the suggestion of my wife's older aunt back east, we tried the below   
   solution this year, and drastically lessened apple damage from apple   
   maggots and codling moths. She claims it has worked for her for years.   
      
   Mix together 1 cup vinegar, 1 cup sugar, and 1 banana peel. put it all   
   in a plastic gallon milk jug and add water to make it 1/3 - 1/2 full.   
   Hang jugs without lids in each tree, more for larger trees. I use 2-3   
   for each tree I have. 3, for instance in a tree 15 feet tall and 20 feet   
   in diameter.   
      
   I tied the jugs by their handles to branches 1" or larger in diameter   
   with 1/4" rope.   
      
   I put up the jugs shortly after fruit set.   
      
   Lots of dead flies and other insects drowned in the jugs now.   
      
   We pressed apples for cider yesterday, and were amazed how few of the   
   apples showed damage.
