Pine Processionary Caterpillar Treatment – Bacillus Thuringiensis: A Natural Solution to Protect Your Pines

Once ingested by the caterpillars, it stops their feeding, leading to their elimination within days. This targeted treatment preserves the ecosystem while protecting your pines.

How to Recognize a Pine Processionary Caterpillar Infestation?

  • Partial or complete defoliation of pine needles, often localized at the top or ends of branches.
  • Visible silk webs between the needles or on the branches, indicating caterpillar activity.
  • Yellowing or drying needles, a symptom of tree weakening due to repeated defoliation.

Life Cycle of the Pine Processionary Caterpillar

Why and How to Treat with Bacillus Thuringiensis?

Effectiveness depends on early application, as soon as young caterpillars emerge from eggs and start feeding on the needles. In France, this period typically ranges from September to November, depending on the region.

Step-by-Step Instructions

1

Pour 0.5 liters of water into a sprayer suitable for even application.

2

Shake vigorously for about one minute to ensure optimal dispersion of the product.

3

Generously spray the entire crown of the pine, ensuring uniform wetting of the needles, particularly the active feeding areas where caterpillars are present.

4

Apply the treatment in the late evening to avoid direct sunlight and ensure better adherence.

Once you capture the first moths, you can plan your treatment in advance, before the eggs hatch. This allows you to act earlier and be more effective.

No, it is not recommended to apply the treatment during rain or strong wind. Raindrops or wind can disperse the product before it is ingested by the caterpillars, reducing its effectiveness. Choose a calm and dry day for optimal application.
