What trees does bagworms attack?
Arborvitae, spruce, juniper, cedar. Occasionally deciduous trees. Small spindle-shaped bags hanging from branches, made of the tree's own needles. Often mistaken for cones.
Outcome
An evergreen stripped by bagworms usually does not regrow those needles — arborvitae and spruce don't refoliate bare wood. Catching them early is the difference between a treatment and a replacement.
Indiana specifics
