Webworm Treatment in Fort Worth, TX.

​

What Are Webworms?

Webworms are a common caterpillar pest in Fort Worth and other Texas regions. They impact more than 88 different species throughout the North Texas alone. Specifically targeting shade trees, ornamentals, fruit trees, and shrubs especially Oaks, Hickory, and Pecans.

Heavy infestations over a course of several years can subject the trees to drought, lesser foliage, and more of a severe decline. These caterpillars can be invasive and colonize your foliage causing a defoliation. The fall webworm moth is normally 1-1/2 inch wingspan.

Heavy infestations are normally not fatal to the tree. However several infestations in consecutive years can stress the tree and make it more vulnerable to other insects like beetles or borers.

Consulting with a professional tree Arborist Fort Worth, TX company is vital to setting the right cause of action for treatment.

SAVING SICK TREES IN ALL SEASONS

​

Biology of Webworms

Webworms are a moth when they are fully grown and developed. It is not uncommon to see mass egg manifestations of 600 to 1000 eggs on one leaf.

Depending on how much webworms get on your tree they can cover one branch. However at times if the weather is just right in the fall it is not uncommon to see them cover the whole tree. Webworms normally feed off the tender part of the leaf avoiding the larger vein or Midrib. Whenever you see a tree that is infested you will notice after they feed all you see is a spike where the leaf used to be. Another word for the webworm is the fall webworm.

This is because of the way they manifest in huge numbers during the fall season. However, you can also find webworms at other times of the year. For example, in South Texas, you can find webworms four times out of the year. In parts of North Texas, they normally generate three times with a mass generation in the fall but you can also find them during the spring. The most damaging generation obviously will be during the fall season.

In some cases, they can leave a tree completely barren with no foliage. The webworms normally hide themselves behind rough tree bark during the winter and will hatch during the spring into a moth. At that point, they normally mate and simply die.

Webworm Treatment

There are several ways of combating webworm infestations on your shade trees, ornamentals, shrubs, or your general plants overall. First it is important to know that in most cases the webworms will not kill the tree. So the use of heavy insecticides is normally not in demand for the trees survival. Webworms as unsightly as they might be are easily controlled in the following methods.

1. For a small to mild infestation - pressured water to knock down the nest.

2. For A more bigger infestation - you can add soap or bacillus Thuringiensis BT; perfectly safe for you and the environment. Very affective way to kill the webworms this bacteria will dry up the webworm.

3.. For a more sever case of Webworms - Spraying infected areas with an insecticide like methrin, or bifenthrin. Once again labels for these products change all the time so read your labels!

Important of contracting a certified Arborist Fort Worth Company that is TDA licensed to handle class poisons.

OUR REVIEWS

2018-1-01

These guys were great. Very professional and knocked out a big job in just a few short hours. They clearly knew what they were doing and went above and behind to carefully analyze the health of each tree, and what was needed. As opposed to trimming and moving on. I highly recommend. They did my neighbor as well.

I needed a tree removed from our front yard this past weekend. I called Josh Anthony with Tree Service Fort Worth they came in at a competitive rate and removed it in a safe manner. I will used them again in the future and recommend them to others in Fort Worth.

Very happy in my dealings with Henry and his crew. Henry came out on short notice to provide some recommendations on trimming and keeping one of my pecan trees healthy. His crew was able to come out a couple days later and were very professional and efficient. They even took the bigger limbs that were removed and cut them down for firewood and stacked the wood. Will definitely work with them again for future tree care.

Had just closed on the new house with beautiful landscape to discover my cypress trees dying and other trees on the property looking ill. Called two other arborist before I discovered Henry. Though there was no saving my already dying trees; the others were diagnosed, treated and saved. Henry was not only knowledgeable but also professional, friendly and extremely reasonable. It is almost shocking to find people like him these days. Highly recommended to all!
