Anyone know where to buy some catalpa worms around the central Ar. area? I know where there are some trees but being there at the right time is not convenient.

Worms are still a ways out

When do the first batch of worms usually get on the trees?

 

[Big Sam]

Depends on weather conditions..I seen them early as May and i have not seen them till July...

 

[bucknbill]

Worms are on the trees, a couple more days of leaf munching and they will be nice and fat!!!

Up here in NW Ark, the trees are getting loaded with worms.
Best get out there and get a few

Thanks Eric, I figured it was the method of preservation....just being facetious.

I assumed they meant the freezing process, but with the internet who knows probably just to get clicks.
