Wayyyy better than duct tape for gypsy moth caterpillars.  I am now a fan!!

Wayyyy better than duct tape for gypsy moth caterpillars. I am now a fan!!
I am now a fan of Tanglefoot barrier.Last summer we discovered that our trees were infested with gypsy moths--too late to do much beyond pull huge caterpillars and pupae off our trees. This spring we sprayed egg masses with the water, oil, dish soap mixture and managed to kill a lot of the eggs, but since two whole lines of evergreens were also involved, we couldn't get them all.In an attempt to save my maples from the complete defoliation some of them got last year, I both applied duct tape and painted them with Tanglefoot (side note, the paper wrap was worthless, so I ended up just painting on the bark). Once the caterpillars hatched, I could see clearly which is the better barrier. Just by chance I had put the Tanglefoot above the tape on some trees and below it on others due to configurations of the trees. As the pictures show, where the tape is below the tanglefoot, the tape is swarmed with caterpillars (first instar) and you can even see caterpillars all the way up to the Tanglefoot barrier. Where the Tanglefoot is below, no caterpillars have made it past the Tanglefoot and the duct tape is clean of caterpillars.If this is still a problem next year (as it may be since the evergreens are harder to clear of the gypsy moths), I will be relying on the Tanglefoot to protect the maples and not bother with the duct tape!I used a cheap 2" plastic putty knife to apply. Easy and disposable! And a little baby oil with paper towel followed by soap and water wash cleaned my hands just fine.I wish the Tanglefoot was less expensive, but saving my trees from defoliation is worth it.
