    Can you tell what the tree is? That will make IDing the pest easier.

    Dear Tony

    My tree are Bucida

    What i have found out are they are some type of bagworm.

    Currently i spray with neem oil + salt and soupy water today.

    Will need to see on tomorrow the result.

    Some die or call out from the tree but i did also of manual killing.

    I was going to suggest a bagworm of some sort, they infest cedar and juniper trees here. My mom would pay my brother and I a penny for each one we picked off her trees.

    Do not think I would add salt to that spray. The salt may be what is killing the tree not the worm.
