Page 14, News, Tuesday, May 7, 1991 Ir Expect more forest tent caterpillars The forest tent caterpillar infestation will continue north and west of Lake Superior this spring, but will begin to die out in southern Ontario. A press release issued by the Ministry of Natural Resources said that the infestation is likely to intensify in the west part of the District of Cochrane, the northern part of the District of Algoma, around Lake Nipigon, Thunder Bay and west to the Manitoba border. Areas experiencing a sharp rise in moderate to severe defoliation include Kapuskasing, Wawa, Geraldton, Jellico, Thunder Bay and Ignace. The 1991 forecast is based on surveys last fall in which entomologists counted deposits of forest tent caterpillar eggs on twigs and branches in sample forest areas. Property owners who wish to minimize forest tent caterpillars damage may spray with a registered pesticide or hire an aerial spraying contractor. Owners with only a few trees may trying clipping branches tipped with egg masses and burning the green twigs. The Ministry's approach is to allow natural controls, such as disease and parasites, to end outbreaks. Aerial spraying by MNR is usually not required for forest tent caterpillars, since most trees will survive.
