Description:
A multiple page document about the effects of the Hemlock Looper. The Hemlock Looper is a caterpillar that eat the needles off of Hemlock trees. This causes Hemlock trees to die within a year of the caterpillars eating them. The document suggests that the forest service takes a look at the trees so that they can determine the life span. It goes on to say that the trees can be spread with a replant for the looper, and that the state could pay for up to 50% of the cost. [show more]
