Who’s here after Animal Crossing?
M Yaoyorozu me!! I just got so curious 😂
I found one a while ago and just now looked up what is was. When I heard bagworm I was like "I catch those all the time in acnh."
Me
Me! I was wondering what the heck is this thing. Looks more like a pile of twigs than anything living :o
me, it looks so disgusting but it’s interesting
Pokémon is culture
Beralsi C I came here because I love bermy
Im here because I love Pineco and Foretress
not the case
OH_YEAH_MR.KRABZ yes
Right Jodie?
Wow I never knew these little guys existed. Amazing
Yes
someone doesn't play pokemon.

Bag worms are my favorite bug. And then they started talking about killing them and 😭
Thanks for the video. I will start sprayig spinosad in early June instead of mid June next year from watching the video should my colorado spruce survive per my comments below.
I found these creepy looking cacoons hanging on windows and doors at my job and was wondering what they were.🤮
i use to see those all the time in Missouri, always seen there nests everywhere
I noticed my 6 foot colorado green spruce had its inside needles fallen just yesterday and these little ornamnetal cocoons hanging from the outside limbs. I thought the problem was from so much rain that has recently fallen in Missouri. If I saw them early I likely thought it was a healthy lookng cone for seeding. Boy was I wrong. It's mid August now in Missouri. When I brought 5 of them in to the nursery I was told they were bagworms and to hand pick them off immediately. I was recommended Spinosad spray from fertilome that I used one time since I read on the computer the spray is ineffective on them in mid August. I need to spray only from mid June to mid July given their life cycle I have read on the computer since it is after they hatch and start eating the needles and they are young. I placed about 30 cocoons in a sandwich bag and a day later a male worm came out moving in the bag. The females i have read are like maggots and were about to be impregnated by the males in September in their cocoons for birth in the next spring as both the original male and female die. Unforunetely I have read that on a Colorado spruce bagworms eating the inside needles already was like getting a terminal diagnosis going to the doctor since they get weekend so badly by the needle eating that you just do not see until too much damage has already been done. I had no idea.
I’m because of animal crossing. I didn’t think this was actually real...
me too
Not Dio what’s wrong about city kids?
@I Love Koonboat they’re called masters of camouflage for a reason
what type of tree was they on in this clip, isn't that a cypress tree/or a juniper shrub if so these are everywhere around my house...
We used to have a big problem with bagworms in Texas. Since the fire ants moved in the only time you'll ever see one is if someone buys a tree from up north. In uncultivated land around Austin, TX the ash junipers are going wild.
The land I live on in Texas has a huge diversity of life, I saw the little black caterpillar with its bag and went to look up what it was lol
Here after wondering who a catepillar was inside a pine thing
I just figured out this thing existed because I seen it in my yard and thought I had found a new species
I knew I dropped my 8th somewhere 😂😂
You can use WHAT?
Yeah, WHAT? Poor video when you can't hear the cure.
What if you stick two bagworms together
I had that in my mini tree!
Thanks
Who is here because of Animal Crossing?
Am here because Pokémon
So this is what inspired Burmy in pokemon and its evolutions
Per my comments already made below, today I found and picked off about another 20 bagwom cocoons. Per my reading the internet it is likely my 6 foot Colorado spruce will die anyway. Very conincidental your story came up today on KZhead for me as yesterday I was looking up bagworms on the YAHOO and not youtube. I just had no idea. The large needle drop on the niside makes it easier to find them as if the spruce had its usual thickness in mid August in Missouri it would have been very difficult to find them all. I am now up to around 50 cocoons found and the spruce only has needles on its tips given the huge inside needle drop. Given the caronovirus pandemic the loss of a Colorado spruce is very minor.
Your phone tracks what you look up. That and they listen to you via your microphone on the phone. No wonder it showed up on the recommendation feed. Regardless, I am here because there is a horde in my tree outside as well. Easily 30 worms already connected. I am worried! Lol
animal crossing got me here
Same here!
Việt Việt i got one in amimal crossing too
lol yes because when I caught it I did not know what it was, it looks like a pinecone
why are these everywhere in florida. we never had them untill a few years ago. i swear i never seen one the entire time i was growing up. now they cover my home and pots and plants.
This os exactly why I'm here! I live in Florida too and they are everywhere. Trying to find each of them and kill them cuz I don't want my new veggies growing to die because of them 😭 now I know why our palm trees look awful...I found a couple on them.
Alexis Tollinchi hey I found some do they look like tiny wasps? Or do I actually have wasps ? Becuse I have wasps and the caccoons everywhere
Holy crap! 2:40 I was joking in my head, "manually." But he actually suggests manually kill 'em all.
Accelgor & Wormadam
I have found these cocoons before. Now i know what it is
YIKES!
How do they place each piece so accurately
bagworm-level smarts
They learned how in Bagworm School.
Right, Jodie?
I found some sticks hanging out of my tree and it was a bug called “bagworm”
What can I use to kill bag worms inside my house
Per my comments already made below, I keep finding new cocoons each morning. Looks like the fertilome Spinosad spaying did not help. It's mid August here in Missouri. Looks like I will be cutting down my 6 foot Colorado spruce soon. It has been ravaged. I do not see any worms so I think it is the female maggots making new cocoons each night.
Try methods to degum them (the step used to unwind conventional silkworm moth cocoons, such as boiling and then unraveling them) and make a million bucks. Seriously. It might be as easy as boiling them in water. Scientists found that bagworm silk was tougher than silkworm (Mulberry: Bombyx mori; Eri/Castor Bean: Samia ricini) silk. You can read all about it. Also, strength-testing competitive materials gets a lot of KZhead hits.
@@JakeWitmer Thanks! The good news is there was lots of new growth this Spring so it has survived. It looks like a shrub again. I am using a Scotts plant food recommended by a nursery as well but the new growth started without. I plan to start Spinosad for prevention in a couple weeks. At least now I have awareness. I thought they were pine cones. Our heat and humidity here I have read is not the best for this type of shrub that is meant more for the mountain states.
So it's basically a camouflage hermit crab worm type thing?
its a moth. they just use parts of the tree when constructing the cocoon.
My tree was half dead i look see why i saw 30 of them over my tree they was moving i used Google search found this i was like cool at first but then they say they can cause the tree to die
They make my skin crawl
I can too
TZMS Adventures wow lmao
Yes! I literally freaked out when I saw one on the window at work
Right Jodie?
I have some at my house
There here in Texas
Woah! Put them down, they can use self-destruct
Or cut you to pieces with rapid spin 😲
Um first off....WOW
I live in Maryland and these are infesting my Bloodgood Japanese Maple tree.
Mine too in North Carolina. This means war.
@@seeharvester I got a bottle of neem oil that has to be mixed with water, it's supposed to kill caterpillars. I'll be spraying it soon as bagworm moths hatch late May and in early June.
The aussie lad from Instagram brought me here
They're delicious in a salad
Wow! I just found some today. I don't really care that they are on my shrubs. I think they are pretty interesting.
Pretty soon you will not have any shrubs...how interesting!
@@justinlavoie7337 actually, I posted my comment a year ago and the shrubs are fine. I just trimmed them back about two weeks ago. They are some sort of evergreen. Maybe that matters.
They destroy arborvitaes. I pull them off by hand, they move around in their cocoon or bags. Totally creepy!
Today, I cut my arborvitae down and burned it. It was 15 years old 😢
I was tryna see what this was I got a video of me screaming bc it moved when I touched it with a stick
What was that insecticide? BT? What's that? They've taken over my Japanese Maple.
I saw one on a hackberry tree and pulled it off and mashed it into a greasy spot in the dirt. If they would just eat juniper trees I would never kill any of them. Juniper are invading and killing oak and hickory trees throughout the Ozark Mountains and the surrounding area.
i HATE you!
Whoa. that went south fast.
Anyone here from pokemon
Wait those are bugs
I had one jump at me didnt even knoe they existed
I have tons of bagworm on our house wall but they are camouflage on our wall because our wall doest have color yet
What if i want to keep my bag worms i cant find any thing for them
Why are you two talking to each other? You both know this allready! Talk to the camera!
Looking like some bud 🔥😂

Sell them for Bells, don't kill them.
Bagworms are not worms insied there callerpillers
"Caller" pillers? Who are they calling?
I got more miles from getting bugs
I'm not a bug lover at all but.. God this video put things into perspective.. killing living things cause they cause an "unsightly" leaf colour on a tree according to humans. Newsflash, Trees weren't made just for humans.

Sheldon Cooper presents Fun with flags
I have some as a pets
These killed 2 of my shrubs that were 15 yrs old. Really pissed. So this time I’m picking them off & squishing with my fingers. I m getting my revenge.
Could just collect them and move them instead of declaring chemical warfare on the poor little dudes. Spend days crafting such a wicked little house to be gassed to drowned or suffocated
They are invasive
KILL THEM ALL!!!!
Bet you feel the same way about ants and earwigs.
hornets, wasp, yellow jackets and black widow spiders too...
Using natural repellent or put treats to atract more birds could help too :c
ew
Terrible advice. BACILLUS THORENGIS KILLS BUTTERFLIES.
Per my comments a;ready made below, I have read the female produces hundreds of eggs. It looks since I like just killed 50 bagworm cocoons on my colorado spruce I have just prevented the releae of thousands of bagworms for next spring. I cannot believe I knew nothing about bagworms. I have just seen their destruction.
What's animal crossing? Shoutout to Burmy
here from animal crossing
I'm tired of these shits on the sides of my house.
Throw them into soapy water? How depressing
I use them as bait sometimes for fishing. I rip a hole in the back end, stick a pen in the front to spook them. They will retreat through the back hole. Their "tail" will stick a out a tiny little bit. Then I pull them out with pliers. You have to grab them immediately as they are fast and their tails are sensitive to touch. If you don't care about possibly injuring them you can just cut it open with scissors.
Bummy
They should just be left alone to do what they soposed to do .God sent them here for a reason just like everything else on this earth & us humans are the ones doing the most damage to this earth .That's really bad too we the worst .
No, god didn't put them here. God is a figment of our imaginations. Bagworms evolved to be the way they are, like all other living things, not for any reason, but through a combination of chance and natural selection. But you're right that humans do immense damage to the earth.
@@paulheckbert Humans also add immense value to the earth. The problem is bigoted, stupid, anti-market humans that slow down the process of figuring out optimality.

Here's an idea, don't plant trees as ornaments, that way you don't care if nature pays you a visit in the form of bagworms.
Make $$$ collecting the bags, boiling them, and unraveling them... www.semanticscholar.org/paper/A-study-of-the-extraordinarily-strong-and-tough-by-Yoshioka-Tsubota/b7f58682b9c02d110e9635f4f82d079b43b2c24c
@@JakeWitmer Thanks for that. Good to know. I try to avoid animal products. Hemp and mycelium are highly under-researched and underused products that have a wide range of applications, including clothing and building material. Silk, be it from silkworms or bagworms, is mainly used for frivolous products like bedding, clothes and upholstery. I wouldn't feel comfortable systematically killing animals for that end.
@@maciej.ratajczak There's an argument to be made that the suffering of insects is lesser than the suffering of mammals. Perhaps it's not correct, or not optimal from a vegan perspective, but I think it would be better to have lots of silk production than lots of mammalian meat and wool production. I am not against wool production, and also not vegan, but I do try to reserve some doubt about this, and try not to denigrate the vegan perspective. (FWIW: The pupae inside the cocoons are eaten in stir-fry, and hence, don't need to be wasted. Also, nearly all silkworms in the wild would be eaten by predators. Having been selected for their silk, the females are flightless, much like the bagworm. Additionally, without the silk, they'd be considered a mulberry pest. As animals, insects are barely more than simple programs in the ecosystem.) I also favor increased use of hemp and mycelium, which can produce amazing products. (There's only a question of how much energy, cost, and effort it takes. Products must always reduce cost, or they direct brains to waste precious human intelligence on the pathway to superintelligence, ceteris paribus.) Last I checked, Eben Bayer's company, ecovative, was replacing styrofoam with baked Pleurotus ostreatus mycelium packaging. I do think it's interesting that carbon and sunlight will likely soon give us a near-zero-impact way to live, if we so choose. (I don't think we will so choose, but I think it's interesting. ...It will certainly be possible to grow all the machines and technology of the future, and to produce optimal cybernetic outcomes. ...Right now, humans are, on the balance, too stupid and malevolent, even to their own kind.)
@@JakeWitmer Yes, that suffering argument can be made, but I try to look at all (living) things equally. Good to know the pupae are eaten, like Native Americans with Buffalo. A lot of private interest involved in these matters via lobbying, vetoing, regulating- corrupting. Yes, humanity only has a limited amount of geniuses: we should aim to have them working on the most collectively beneficial ideas. 3D house printing is an exciting technology on the rise. Would you agree that going nuclear (in disaster free zones, of course) is the best energy solution?
@@maciej.ratajczak I'm not especially concerned with the suffering of lower animals, especially in comparison with that of higher animals. I'm human-centric, but, after ameliorating human suffering, would also like to prevent the suffering of cetaceans, primates, and on down, continuing with the rather intelligent octupi and cuttlefish. (Though it would be an unpleasant fate for us to have to battle sociopathic spider or squid-brains after some sort of intelligence explosion.) I have no problem with farming the lower animals, but think it should be done as free from suffering as is profitable and possible. (Reducing human suffering should be the primary concern of such incremental improvements. If the cost of a cut of meat increases by $1 dollar, some human suffering is significantly increased, and not just in the form of 'adding pain' to a price point, since dollars fungibly are spent to reduce human suffering in all areas, including medicine and life-extension.) Yes, either spring-dampened and multiply-redundant-safety-planned small nuclear (likely following Taylor Wilson's small nuclear plant design), or geothermal, is probably optimal. This is especially true given the demands of crypto-mining and transaction processing (even assuming something less energy-consuming than bitcoin is both designed and adopted). Likely small nuclear _and_ geothermal would be optimal, as would an increase in human energy consumption. Geothermal is probably better than nuclear, long-term. In the case of an earthquake, meteor impact, human malfeasance, or other upheaval event, geothermal wouldn't result in ruinous damage to the food supply and surrounding life, nor could it create contaminants likely to be carried into contact with life by ocean or air currents.
