We've had a HUGE infestation of Forest/Western tent caterpillars here on Pender Island, B.C. Canada....... we know they really like Alder/cottonwood almost all deciduous trees and have devestated our Apple Orchards ... pretty sad! So my question is what should we do to prevent future disasters??... We have large older trees which are pretty much impossible to "clean" during the winter...I've used a "tiger torch" to attempt to keep ahead of these critters..almost a 24/7 job........ any suggestions re. a spray that could be used over the winter? I know that BTK can be used as the leaves form in the spring(which I'll do next year)..any other ideas???? thnx... john
