Yellowstriped oakworm eggs

Post by Pizzazz »

Hi gang

Found these small eggs today and thought I would take a closer look.
Notice the moth scales from female's egg-laying activity.

Nice images. You must live somewhere fairly south as trees have new leaves this early in spring. Here we have to wait still for another month...

Hi Banania

Yes, I live in Florida. No winter! :(

However, the bugs do take a little break.

I did stumble across these eggs and just had to take a photo.
Come to find out, these oakworms are not good for the tree.

Thanks for responding.

Mike
