The bagworm, Thyridopteryx ephemeraeformis (Haworth). Bagworms are general feeders that spin sacks or bags of small pieces of twigs and leaf material (usually cedar). These sacks are 1/4 to 1 1/2 inches in length and usually are found on foliage. The bag is carried by the insect wherever it goes. The larva protrudes the front end of its body from the bag when feeding or moving.
