We reported we saw many Gypsy moths on York Regional Scout Tract Trail (16578 Mccowan Rd, Cedar Valley), and ate all of the oaks and maple tree leafs.
When we walked on the trail, when we walked through the trail especially south side of the trail (close to the residential property) , we saw Gypsy moths kept travelling in the Scout Tract Trail in different trees…all the oaks and maple are gone now. We are so afraid to walk through the south side of the mini trail now……
This gypsy moths already widely spread at York Regional Scout Tract Trail , when we walked through the trees, there are bare. The cause gypsy moths already widely spread at this trail.
