The bagworm in Missouri (1984)
Abstract
"The bagworm is a native insect of Missouri. In its native habitat, it causes little concern except occasionally when populations of the pest build up on a favorite host such as the Eastern red cedar and complete defoliation results. In cities, towns, and farmsteads where people use evergreens and deciduous trees and shrubs for landscape purposes, the bagworm represents a constant threat. Although Eastern Red Cedar and its horticultural varieties, other juniper species, and arborvitae are favorite hosts, this pest will attack a wide range of other plants including willow, apple, maple, rose, and boxelder."--First page.
