Excerpt from The Apple Bud-Moths and Their Control in Nova Scotia

During June and July, the bud-moths pupate in the leaf cluster on the tree, and in a couple of weeks the adults emerge to deposit their eggs. In clean, open wind swept orchards large numbers of the adults perish at this time by being blown from. The trees into open fields, pastures, etc. The eggs of all four species are deposited on the leaves; those of the eye-spotted bud-moth and green-hnd-worms singly on the under side of the leaf; those of the oblique-banded leaf roller 1 a cluster on the upper side of the leaf, and those of the lesser bud moth in a row on the under side of the leaf in the suture next to the midrib.
