Well John,  maybe you are looking for a different
response than this but the answer is the same as
before your county was quarantined. It is illegal to
transport any apple, anywhere, whether down your
driveway, inside your county or over the mountain if
it has AM. 
Now that a reliable attractant has finally been found
(GF 120) to make the Spinosad effective I would have
to give it a thumbs up that is if you are planning to
be organic, certified or otherwise. In my opinion it
has really made all the other attract and kill
research obsolete.
If organic is not a concern, I doubt you would be as
happy with this product as with say a regular program
of Imidan as far as effectiveness, ease of application
and cleanup of the apples if you don't have a cleaning
line.
