Tent caterpillars

Hey guys,


One of my apple trees has tent caterpillars, what do I use to kill and treat them?
 
It was recommended here to use a product called "Seven" when I had the same issues - seemed to have worked.
 
Many of the Bonide products work well and are easier to find then Seven.
 
or if you are in a quick pinch and don't have access to those specific sprays, a can of bee/wasp spray works
 
Found some Sevin and used that. Thanks guys

That should smoke them but check back to be sure in a few days because if some were in the cocoon then they could have survived. they are very voracious eaters
 
thats what I did, looks good now, I'll check them again tomorrow
 
My FIL uses a blow torch.
 
My dad did the same! lol If he couldn't reach them, that's where the shotguns came in.
