BROWNTAIL MOTH CATERPILLAR UPDATE

It is advised that Brunswick residents should check their properties for infestation levels and determine if control methods are warranted.

A good method of management around the home is to CLIP THE WEBS DURING THE WINTER MONTHS while the caterpillars are still inside and destroy by soaking in water and detergent.

If you want to have your property sprayed, the Town recommends that you ACT SOON in order to ensure that you will be able to be treated. A list of licensed ground spray applicators is listed below. The Town also recommends that you coordinate your efforts with neighbors in order to reduce the cost and increase the effectiveness of the ground spraying.
