Every year I get little worms in my guavas and papayas. What are they and can anything be done?

These are probably the larvae of the Caribbean fruit fly. This pest is a problem on all fruits which are fleshy and which stay on the tree a long time before ripening. The fly deposits an egg just below the surface of the skin and the larvae feeds throughout the fruit as it matures.

Upon maturity, a fly emerges from the fruit. The larvae are usually so numerous the fruit is inedible. Frequent and persistent appropriate sprays throughout the fruiting period will give only poor results in controlling this pest; bagging fruits with paper bags is probably more effective.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
