| We find a tiny teepee constructed of twigs on the underside of a leaf, home to an immature caterpillar of a bagworm moth. |
| When fully grown, the bagworm fastens its covering to a twig and pupates within it. |
| This is the time when bagworm eggs have hatched but have not yet formed their protective covering. |
| Natural enemies of the bagworm, Metisa plana Walker and their impact on host population regulation. |
| The bagworm is native to the U.S. and occurs throughout much of the area east of the Rocky Mountains. |
| Inside every case once inhabited by a female bagworm are up to 1,000 eggs, which hatch in June. |
