A few bushes around here over the last couple of weeks have been covered with mysterious webs. On looking a bit closer they are filled with thousands of caterpillars ans eggs....I think they are Ermine Moth larvae which can cover a tree or bush in less than 2 weeks. The leaves are eaten then the larvae cover the trees in cocoons of silk, similar to giant spider webs.....
