⚠️ Even with the snow flurries and black ice this morning, it’s hard to believe these caterpillars are already becoming an issue—but they are. ⚠️

The first eastern tent caterpillars (ETC) of the season are now emerging.

The normal time for egg hatch is when the forsythia bloom starts and when the first Eastern redbud blooms emerge.
