You NEVER, NEVER spray fruit trees while the blossoms are anywhere in 
sight...you can kill off the bees this way.  Any package that I have 
purchased over the years, says to spray every two weeks until the 
blossoms appear, and every two weeks from after the blossoms have 
fallen until a week before the fruit is picked.  This is what we do and   
the results are good.
