Processionary Caterpillars
If you have nests on Pine trees within your property, contact us to discuss removal. We have a dedicated team who have been clearing nests around the local area for several decades.

Processionary caterpillars start getting on the move between late January and March (all really depends on the weather).

Whilst nests are found from October, they are often difficult to spot - but this is the best time to remove them, treat the tree and avoid panic when the caterpillars start moving.

Lines of up to 300 caterpillars are common, and inquisitive pets are at risk of severe discomfort, loss of life and extensive surgery if they get too close.
