What Could Cause Pellets Of Black Stuff To Fall From My Trees?
Q: What could cause pellets of black stuff to fall from my trees?
A: Undoubtedly caterpillars feeding high in the tree. Early fall is when their leaf consumption goes into high gear and their fecal pellets become noticeable. Even so, their damage is negligible. There’s no need to control them.
