I thought I’d write with regards to news on the Brown Tail Moth Caterpillar as reported on the front of last week’s Wiltshire Times.
I have noticed these nests appearing (they look like massive cobwebs). They are on the hedgerows on the road between Bradford on Avon and Fiveways. I first noticed them about a month ago, some of them are really massive.
There are definitely well over a dozen of these nests.
I had no idea what they were, and assumed that it was some infestation of spiders of some sort.
Thanks – at least I now know what it is, and I’ll remember to keep the car windows shut.
