    I would leave them. They'll fall when ready, or you can pick them as you normally would.

    I grew up in a grove and they sprayed every year. It keeps the fruit from being deformed. We ate them and they picked and packed them. Just wash them.

      Find out exactly what they used, then research it. Next time you need to have sprayed, see if there are organic options. You live and learn, I would never let anyone treat my trees before knowing what they were using, if it is potentially toxic and whether or not the fruit would be edible.

    Well us dummies ate them and my mom died at 99 and I'm pretty old. Maybe they use something else
