The silk trail: Eastern tent caterpillar, Malacosoma americanum — Bug of the Week

Here’s the caterpillar I’m referring to Fred.

Oops! I tried to post on your thread?

maybe all the ones that have been strippig the trees are not tent caterpillars? I’ve not seen any of the big silk nests. ???

I was going to ask about that? It would be very early for Tent Caterpillars up here. Not so sure about your area though?

Although, we have had an early Spring. We usually have them leaving the nests around the same time Bream are on their beds.

That’s why I’ve had such success using them as Bait.

Army Worms is what it sounds like to me?

They is what they is
