Well most all my oaks are denuded now. the damn catapillars have eaten everything What really pissed me off was I went out to look at my blueberries and the MFers are eating them too. Now I take my blueberry growing serious so I got a broom and started to crush the suckers. They are easy to kill in the daytime because they come down from the tree in the day and congregate on the trunk and then start back up the tree to start eating the crap out of the tree at night. I went around to all the oaks and must have killed 10,000 of the suckers with the broom. They are real big now so it was easy picking, they just sit there and the broom is a great killing machine, leaf rake works good too. The problem is all the damage has been done but I got some satisfaction out of it until on the last tree I got stung by one of those white tipped wasp's. Man did that hurt Oh well I just can't win.
