Title: Tree Infestation
Post by: jay on August 08, 2011, 09:49:47 PM
I've noticed many Youngstown trees infested with these tent worms. 

These were located on a black walnut tree.

I have a few of those in my Black Walnut trees also. I do hope they won't damage the trees.

One person told me to cut the tent caterpillar nest out of the tree and then toast it on a BBQ fire.
