Our stone fruit and apple trees were hit hard last spring with brown rot and I see the preventative treatment is spraying Captan, sulfur or similar fungicides.  Would prefer to have a decent harvest than see another wasted year BUT-  Captan is a bit scary, so would a sulfur spray be the safest or is there something better?  I even read that someone was using diluted raw milk and it worked about 80%.  Don't think that would bother the bees...

Any ideas?

Thanks!
