Our tree in our garden has had a massive infestation of some sort of moth catipillar- they are all hatched and currently thousands are dropping down.

What is the best way of dealing with this? I’m half assuming the tree is done for- 90% of it is just moth web not leaf now

I’ve caught a load on some dowel and laid them on a table so hopefully the birds will have a go at them.

EDIT: this is the second year of them, however there are probably double the numbers this year.

I’m guessing the tree is a spindle tree?
