Die Krebswürmer sind die Inch-Würmer, die beim Kriechen aufspringen.
Im Frühjahr schlüpfen Eier und die Larven hängen sich aus Seidensträngen aus. Dadurch können sie auf andere Bäume geblasen werden. Die Larven fressen Blätter bis zur Mittelrippe und ernähren sich für bis zu fünf Wochen. Nach dem Füttern gehen sie in den Boden, um sich zu verpuppen. Die weiblichen Motten haben keine Flügel und müssen die Baumstämme hochklettern, um Eier zu legen. Abhängig von der Art des Krebsgewebes können Eier entweder im Frühling oder im Fall gelegt werden. Die Eier sind dicht nebeneinander auf kleinen Zweigen angeordnet.
Zu den Kontrollen gehören Bacillus thuringiensis, Methoxychlor oder Orthene.

FAQ - 💬
❓ What do canker worms become?
👉 The cankerworms hatch to become light to brownish-green caterpillars with a greenish stripe on their backs. They begin munching on new leaves and buds until they are around 5-6 weeks old, when they drop down on single threads of silk to form their silk pupae underground.
❓ Are canker worms poisonous?
👉 Cankerworms In Your Yard Fortunately, this is a springtime phenomenon and lasts only a week, so there is not a lot you'd necessarily need to do when that happens. Cankerworms are not poisonous to animals and will not harm your yard, bushes and other greenery; their only target is your trees.
❓ How long do canker worms last?
👉 Relief is also on the horizon for those getting caught in any cankerworm webs. Nawolsky said the creatures have a lifespan of about four to five weeks, and we're already into week three.
❓ Why are they called cankerworms?
👉 These insects are called FALL cankerworms because the females emerge from November through January from the soil and crawl to twigs of hardwood trees to lay eggs in a tight cluster of about 100 on the twigs. Female fall cankerworms are wingless and silvery gray.
❓ What can you do for canker worms?

❓ Where do canker worms live?

❓ How do you get rid of canker worms naturally?

❓ How do you get rid of canker worms in the house?
