The tiny worms seem in recent weeks to be crawling
everywhere on the University campus, including some of the
University’s human inhabitants.

Bug invasion
Inch worm population ‘exceptionally high’
By TRACEY WILLIAMS
Battalion Reporter
Look — Up in the sky — It’s a
bird — It’s a plane — No, it’s a
worm.
And many people have found at
least one of these worms in their
hair or on their clothes.
These canker worms, more com
monly known as inch worms, have
been seen in the trees for about two
weeks, and Jim Hunter, a county
extension agent, said that it will be
another two or three weeks before
they are gone.
“We have these canker worms to
some degree every year,” Hunter
said. “It’s just that this year the
numbers are exceptionally high, and
we re really not sure why.”
Hunter said that the “extreme
weather conditions” this area of
Texas has experienced might have
something to do with the large
number of worms.
“Were only guessing,” said
Hunter, “but the unusual amount of
rain might have something to do
with it. These things just seem to go
in cycles.”
According to Hunter, the moths
that produce these spring canker
worms lay their eggs on the bark of
trees in late February or early
March. After the eggs hatch, the
larvae feed on the foliage of the
trees for three to five weeks, and
then they enter the soil where they
remain until they become moths.
“The larvae feed primarily on
oaks, and if there are enough
worms, they can defoliate the
trees,” Hunter said. “You can spray
to get rid of them, but since they’ll
be gone in a couple of weeks, it’s not
necessary unless there’s a lot of
damage.”
Gene Ray, director of grounds
maintenance, said that some of the
smaller trees on the Texas A&M
campus have been sprayed.
“We just ignored some of the
larger trees because they have a lot
of recuperative strength,” said Ray.
“A lot of the larger trees were also in
the areas where there are always
vehicles and people, and that makes
worms spraying difficult.”
“It’s not so much that they have
done a lot of damage,” Ray said.
“The real problem is looking at your
shoulder and being eyeball to
eyeball with a worm.”
Although the worms may be an
noying, both Ray and and Hunter
agreed that these “eyeball to
eyeball” confrontations will be over
in the next two to three weeks.
