I read this on the internet. How can this be true when apples are waxed? Wouldn't the pesticide be under the wax?
If anybody has any ideas how to get rid of both at the same time without using boiling water which will trash the pot you use with baked in wax I would sure like to know.

There seems to be some truth (and this ) that baking soda helps removing some pesticides.
You can wash your fruits under running warm water to remove most of the wax and some pesticides and after that, use baking soda.
If all fails, you can remove the skin of the apples.
