Bagworms, Leeland Cypress Trees and Honey Bees??

Kind of speaks for itself I guess! What can I do to rid myself of the pest known as bagworm (Thyridopteryx ephemeraeformis), and not rid myself of my honey bees? Has anyone ever had this issue?

Ron,
You might want to investigate the possibility of liquid sevin. Be sure not use on a windy, breezy or anthing other than a totally calm day.
