Calling all CoSO nature types. Anyone know what sort of nest this is??
It’s growing on a tree outside my window and has a couple of wasps flying around it. Is it a wasp nest?
Last year this time this tree got infested and eaten to bits by September by what looked like silk worms to me.
Should I get a broom destroy it?? 😃🤪
@TheAbbotTrithemius Tent caterpillars maybe?
@haggardmom75 @TheAbbotTrithemius I was going to say gypsy moth caterpillar tent.
@haggardmom75 @TheAbbotTrithemius if it's gypsy moths a broom will just spread them soon no leaves on that tree. We blast hose em down or light them on fire.

I'd personally nip those branches off, put the nest somewhere safe then burn it or spray with insecticide.
@cephalopie @Klaatu_Veratta_Nectarine @haggardmom75
Can I just aim pesticide at it and send a stream of it that way..
@TheAbbotTrithemius @Klaatu_Veratta_Nectarine @haggardmom75
Yes, except the next itself will stop the stream. I would spray it , knock it about with a stick/broom handle and spray again.
