Bag worms
I just realized these have covered one arborvitae. They have already
attached their silk lined sleeping bags to the branches and most have closed the hatch, getting ready to lay eggs I guess. Yes, I searched google and found a million posts, but didn't find what to do if you have just discovered them this time of year. I have picked off one or two hundred bags. Dropped them in a bucket of water with a lot of bleach. Not a friendly death, but what can one do? My concern is what about all the ones I missed? I read up to 2000 eggs per sack! I don't like to use poison, but will use it if I have to. It seems like it will do the best if I wait for spring/summer for them to hatch, then spray. I don't know if using any spray now will get to them inside their sack? All help appreciated, Tono SouthEastern PA zone 6 |
