    Hi all,

    Just moved house to a place with an apple tree in the back, which is planted straight into soil with grass over. The leaves have a lot of holes in and look diseased to me... Anyone know what it is?

      The snake like trails in the leaves looks like the precence of some sort of larvae. Im a novice with fruit so will be interested to hear informed opinion.

      The trails in the leaves are leaf miner.
      Unless it gets really bad it wont affect the crop that much.
