Bagworm Alert!

Bagworm Alert!

In late spring, bagworm eggs hatch and the larvae are released, where they will locate and attach to a host
plant. As they defoliate plants very quickly, these small, dark worms will spin cocoons that resemble pine
cones for protection. They prefer evergreens like juniper, arborvitae, cedar, and spruce.
