I was in that area this past week and you have both the oak leaf roller and cankerworms. No treatment is necessary on either, but if people feel the need to protect important landscape trees, I would recommend using a Bacillus thuringiensis var. kurstaki product since it will target caterpillars. You can find more information at the following links: http://insects.tamu.edu/extension/bulletins/uc/uc-021.html http://insects.tamu.edu/extension/bulletins/l-1829.html Wizzie Brown Extension Agent-IPM Travis County 1600-B Smith Road Austin, TX 78721 phone: 512.854.9600 fax: 512.854.9611 email: ebrown@ag.tamu.edu ----- forwarded.... |
