Bagworm control was evaluated on Chinese junipers that were located at a nursing home in Stillwater, Okla. The plants were 4 to 5 ft high and 10 to 15 ft wide. Treatments were randomized and replicated three times. Plants were sprayed until runoff with a Macro R-20 sprayer which delivered 1.6 gal/min at 200 lb/in2. The plants were treated on 11 Jul. when the temperature was 92°F. Mortality was determined by examining 10 larvae from each replication at 1, 4, 7, 14, and 21 days after application.
