FYI if you are seeing these in your trees they are Eastern Tent Caterpillars, they are in no way related to the invasive Spongy Moth. Tent Caterpillars primarily target fruit trees (especially Cherry) and while unsightly and occasionally, mildly destructive to the infested tree, they are generally considered harmless.
If they are causing an issue you can simply remove the branches with clean sharp pruners and dispose of them by soaking them in a bucket of soapy water. Burning and or pesticides are discouraged.

FUN FACT: 1 chickadee will eat 6,000-9,000 caterpillars

For anyone who would like to know...You no longer need a garage sale permit from Denton Township in order to have a garage sale. We discontinued the fees and permits a few years ago, although the regulations are still in place to limit them for no more than two per year. Happy sailing everyone!
