Abstract
Before planting an apple, pear, or cherry tree for its beauty and bounty, residents who live in Washington's major fruit-producing areas should consider the downside of planting fruit trees in their backyards. Insect pests can infest backyard fruit trees and can be time consuming and expensive to control. Also, Washington homeowners who plant apple, pear, or cherry trees on their property are legally responsible for controlling insect pests because they are a threat to nearby commercial orchards.
