The larvae of this moth feed on the fruit of apples, pears, quinces, and occasionally other tree fruits, resulting in significant economic losses for growers. To control this pest, many growers use pheromone traps, insecticides, and integrated pest management strategies. While the codling moth is a challenge for commercial orchards, knowledge of its life cycle and management techniques can aid in reducing damage caused by this pest.
