   @OzarkHillbilly:
   We called ’em tent caterpillars. My father torched the tents. Somehow he could do this without setting fire to anything else.

   Wonderful collections of images.

   @CSK: I use to torch the tents, but then I realized that the black blobs on the limbs of certain trees (cherries, both wild and domestic were a favorite) were egg masses and began burning them off before they hatched. Now I am all but tent worm free. (I have 12.5 acres for them to nest in, I’ll never be totally free of da bahstahds). I didn’t find any egg masses this past winter. We’ll see how many I missed soon enough.
