Save our citrus AND our bees<\/h1>\n
I am a commercial beekeeper with citrus trees on my property in Carpinteria. This Asian citrus psyllid (ACP) issue is very important to me as I have large commercial citrus growers as my neighbors. The last thing I want is for my citrus trees to harbor a pest that damages my neighbors\u2019 ability to grow citrus. Therefore, I am planning on treating my citrus trees with organic methods to limit the damage to both the trees and the bees.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The option to save both our citrus AND our bees exists!\u00a0 See below links:<\/div>\n
