	Royal Alberta Museum: Invertebrate Zoology - Bug Facts - Bagworm Moth
		Although bagworms are present from spring to fall, it is usually not until the fall, when the fully-grown larvae start to climb the sides of buildings in numbers, looking for a place to hibernate, that they are commonly seen.
		The caterpillars of the bagworm moths feed on lichens.
		There are no common names at the species level for bagworm moths, and the name applies to all members of the family Psychidae.

	Controlling Bagworm in the Landscape
		The bagworm is an insect native to the United States and is common in eastern Nebraska.
		The adult male bagworm is a small, furry gray moth with clear wings; the adult female does not have wings and never leaves the bag she constructs during feeding.
		Bagworms can be controlled on small plants by handpicking during the winter and spring before the eggs begin to hatch in late May. Destroy bags by burning, immersing in kerosene or by crushing.

	Bagworm - Penn State Entomology Department Fact Sheet
		The bagworm is a perennial insect pest of arborvitae, juniper, pine, spruce, and many other evergreen species.
		The spread of the bagworm is slow since adult females are unable to fly.
		Bagworms may be controlled on small shrubs and trees by handpicking or cutting the bags from infested plants during late fall, winter, or early spring, before egg hatch.

	Bagworm moth - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bagworms species are found globally, with some species, such as the snailcase bagworm, migrating to new continents in modern times where they are not native.
		Trees infested with bagworms exhibit increasingly damaged foliage as the infestation increases until the leaves are stripped bare.
		Bagworms are considered pests to humans due to the damage done to host trees such as wattle in South Africa and orange in Florida.

	Bag Worm Fact Sheet -- Woody Ornamental Integrated Pest Management at Penn State
		The bagworm (Thyridopteryx ephemeraeformis (Haworth)) is the larval stage of a moth native to Pennsylvania that is reported to feed on over 100 different plants.
		Bagworms spread slow because the female is unable to fly, however, bagworms can be windblown or crawl to other host plants and can also spread through infested nursery stock.
		The bagworm has some natural enemies, such as certain species of birds that are able to tear open the bags and feed on the larvae, in addition to insect predators and parasitoids.

	Moth Movies
		Moths are thus inclined to circle ambient objects in the Mach band region, usually at a radius of about one foot, depending on the species.
		Moths of the type understood to be "attracted to light" are, instead, flummoxed by the proliferation of artifical lights in their local environment, which, if brighter than the brightest celestial object (e.g., the moon), will usurp that object's significance as the reference point for the moth's flight.
		Encountering a brighter artificial light, as the moth maintains its angular relationship to the source of light (per its evolved mode of navigating), but, because the light is nearby, that consistent angle results in a decreasing spiral, until the moth strikes the light source.

	Bagworm - Landscape Nursery and Urban Forestry - UMass Extension
		In fact, bagworms are only a continuous problem starting at the latitude that includes Maryland and ranging south to the Gulf of Mexico.
		However, occasionally bagworm is a serious pest in southern New England and it is due to several factors: New populations are usually brought in on nursery stock from more southern states and introduced into the landscape at planting time.

		Bagworm caterpillars spend most of their lives in silk-lined bags that are covered with bits of needles and leaves that they cut from plants they feed on.
		Bagworms can, over a few years, develop large populations on a bush or tree.
		Another low-tech way to control bagworms is to pick them off by hand and drop them in a bucket of soapy water.

	What's That Bug: Bagworm
		This is a type of moth known as a Bagworm.
		The female moth is flightless, wingless and legless but manages to leave the bag when she emerges.
		Bagworms feed on shade, orchard, and forest trees of nearly every kind, as well as many ornamental shrubs and perennials.

	Snailcase Bagworm
		The snailcase bagworm is an unusual insect that lives within a small, coiled case of soil and silk.
		Snailcase bagworms survive winter as young caterpillars protected within the case of the mother insect.
		Snailcase bagworms also may be dislodged with a vigorous jet of water (preferably soapy water) before they attach themselves to the surface in preparation for pupation.

	Bagworm Parasitoids

	G7250 The Bagworm in Missouri, MU Extension
		This native moth is found extensively throughout the eastern and southern states and reportedly feeds on 128 plant species.
		The most noticeable or visible sign of a bagworm infestation is the presence of silken bags attached to a branch (Figure 1).
		The bagworm also is attacked by some insect predators and parasitoids that usually are effective in controlling small to moderate populations.

	Preventing Bagworm Next Year (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Bagworms appear in May and June in the North and a bit earlier in the South.
		Unless the underlying stress that made your trees and shrubs vulnerable to bagworm attack is identified and corrected, they may return next year.
		If there is a healthy population of ants and spiders working in the trees when the bagworm moth lays her eggs in the fall, then they will eat many of those eggs before they have a chance to hatch.

		There is a growing concern in both scientific and public forums, however, about the impact of introduced biological control agents on nontarget hosts and native natural enemies.
		The parasitic wasp Pimpla disparis was first introduced for control of gypsy moth in the 1970s, and continues to be released in some northeastern states.
		disparis is more common in the fall when bagworm pupae are available because it outcompetes native parasites earlier in the season for other potential hosts, or it may be better at utilizing overwintering hosts.

	Bagworms
		Bagworms also feed on shade, orchard, and forest trees of nearly every kind, as well as many ornamental shrubs and perennials, however, severe attacks are unusual.
		Since deciduous plants regrow new leaves each year, the defoliation caused by bagworm feeding is usually not serious.
		The larva is a brown or tan caterpillar with fl markings.

	Bagworm Moth? - BugGuide.Net
		I've never seen a Bagworm larva so an ID (at least confirmation of it being one of the bagworms) would be much appreciated.
		I grabbed it and the case was very soft, almost like it was made of silk and didn't have bits of stuff sticking out like in a lot of the photos I've seen of them...
		My family was clearing the basement of my grandmother, so it's very possible that it is a casebearing moth larva.

	Eastern Red Cedar
		Your cedar may be "decorated" with little silk sacks that have the cedar's own scaly foliage attached on the outside of them.
		These are made by the larvae of a moth called the Bagworm Moth, [Thyridopteryx ephemeraeformis] which feeds on the foliage and uses its little sack as camouflage from predators.
		If you are trying to protect a tree from the bagworm moth, winter is the perfect time to do so without using chemicals.
