Trees grown against a fence for landscaping along a heavily traveled road. People stopping to pick the fruit is a liability. Rodents come to eat fruit; neighbors on other side of fence complain. Sloat Nursery claimed that they used to carry a defruiting product at "their other store" and to look online. I can't find the product mentioned online.
You could try to remove the blossoms on the tree in the spring to reduce the fruit development.
You could add Nitrogen to increase the leave production and inhibit flowers from forming.
You could replace the tree and remove the liability from your property.
Their are chemical products that licensed tree professionals can use to inhibit fruit production.
Here are links for you with more information.

I have a pomegranate tree. It has a few pomegranates. When are they ready to eat? The seeds are red, skin is hard and dark green with some red?
Harvesting occurs approximately six to seven months after bloom. They have a base color of yellow with a bit of light pink or red on top. If the fruits over-mature, they will crack open. Tap the fruits that look fully ripe. Harvest if it makes a metallic sound, like tapping your fingernail on a metal pot.
The fruits of pomegranate are not edible, as their seeds inside are always black. Why? There are two trees of pomegranate at my home, but when both the plants give fruits, firstly the seeds are white from inside and after 2 or 3 days they get black but not red. Then they become inedible, so please tell me what should I do? I will be very thankful to you.
Here are links that may help you pinpoint the issue.
Seeds do normally darken when they are ripe and open to the air. They are generally best eaten right away.

My pomegranate tree is approximately 6 cm. Should I trim it down? Also, I have two growing in the same pot. Should I move one to a separate pot?

I bought a pomegranate tree that was supposed to be a Granada with full size fruit. I planted it about a month ago and it already has blooms, but they are tiny white blooms unlike the descriptions of an inch across that I see on the internet! Is this a different variety than what I thought I bought?
Environmental factors can effect plant leaves and flowering.
I would check the information tag that came with your plant. Also the garden center should be able to verify the plant types they sold.

I'm planting pomegranates in Southwest Florida. I planted 2 years ago. The plant is starting to produce fruit. They are growing very small and extremely hard. They can't be eaten. What am I doing wrong or what do you suggest? Thanks.
