Default Wormy Apples

We have some older apple trees here and the apples always seem quite wormy I was wondering if there is any natural ways to help this? We would also like to plant some new trees and would like to keep this from happening to them as well. The reason I ask about natural ways as my mother is very sensitive to chemicals.


Thanks

Over here worms come from fruit fly .... is that what caused it?

Good hygiene (no rotting fruit) and fruit fly traps, this one is definitely a case of prevention is better than cure.
