THE APPLE TREE . TENT CATERPILLAR. Experiment Station Bulletin Does Not Recommend Burning Nests on the . Trees. . Connecticut Experiment Station Bul- letin, No. 177 says of the Tent-Cater- pillar: The apple-tree tent caterpillar, a na- tive insect and one of the chief leaf- eating enemies . of the orchards, has been very abundent throughout Con- necticut the present season and has injured fruot trees by defoliating therr in May. Wild cherry is probably the natural f00d of the species; but when abundant it attacks apple and other fruit trees, kggs are laid on the twigs of the food plant in summer and hatch the following April. After a few days the young caterpillars form on the branch- es a nest in which they live, going out from it to feed. - They are -always within the-nest at night and in cloudy weather. They become full-grown in about six weeks and spin theid white, silken cocoons from-which the adults emerge two weeks' later. The small grey eggs are deposited in masses of 200 or more encircling the twigs, and are covered with a brown- ish substance. The full-grown cater- pillar is over two inches long, black above and below, and blue on the sides, with a white stripe along the back. The white cocoon is about o inch in lendth and half on inch- in thickness. * The adult is a reddish- brown moth with two whitish stripes '?endlng obliguely across’ each ' fore The .spec{ng i8 usually held in check bp its natural enemies. which consist of several kinds of birds, parasitic ip- sects and abacterial disease. The remedies are: To gather an des- troy the egg-masses during the winter months: an effective method of ac- complishing this is to offer a bounty or prizes to school children with them: spray when the leaves appear, .using thrge pounds of lead arsenate or one-half pound of Paris green to 50 gallons of wate or Bordeaux mixture; if impractical to ‘spray, brush off the nests as soon as they can be found choosing the early morning of cloudy weather, when {za caterpillars are inside the nest; ‘burning the mests on the trees is not to be recom- mended.
