Known for having distinctive red and blue dots and covered in tiny hairs, gypsy moth caterpillars as part of a widespread outbreak have been chewing through trees and some shrubs across southern Ontario and now experts say there could once again be a record year for damage.
Ross Hull reports on why the insects are showing up in such large numbers and what can be done to prevent further damage.
