Seeing these on all my crape myrtle trees
Looks like a giant, long spider web with hundreds of these things crawling on them
First thought was termites, but not sure
Thanks OB

Does it look like the bugs are actually moving within the web or that they are caught in it?
Tent catepillars will make a web covering trees like that so I'm wondering if those aren't just stuck in the web rather than the web makers themselves.

a good suspend SC/Bifen mix will do the trick.

They are moving within the web
I have been keeping my eye on them for the last week
Those bugs are the ones making the web
I researched what I could and I saw something about caterpillars doing that but there are sooo many of them in the trees
They look nothing like termites
I did a heavy research on that

I believe that may be them. When I saw there bodies, my first thought was that looks like a chewing louse you'd see on an animal.

You cant kill one with fire, gas or roundup... I doubt a few bugs are going to hurt it.
