You can use Bt (Bacillus thuringiensis) products or the chemical Dimillin to control young caterpillars. If you are unable to spray your tree tops, hire a professional arborist. The Maryland Department of Agriculture maintains a list of licensed applicators. In large areas of forestation, community spraying is an option.
