One close examination of my Texas Mountain Laurel, I see dying branch tips
and spider web looking stuff...what are these and how to kill them?



Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,

Web worms. Tear open the webs with a stick, the birds will come eat the
worms. You could also spray with BT. Unless it's a huge tree, mechanical
removal works great with web worms.

So, just snip them off and they will go away?
Cool! It is a small tree...no bigger than I am.

Find ways to attract birds and wasps to your garden. Mockingbirds love
webworms, so do blue jays and woodpeckers.
