The procerex necklace is considered the best treatment for pine processionary caterpillar pest control (Thaumetopoea pityocampa). Thanks to this natural method that takes advantage of the descent of the larvae, a physical barrier is created to control the abundance of processionary caterpillars in the pines at the moment of descent to the ground to prevent them from reaching and crawling freely through the field. This trap allows the capture of larvae in large quantities with a quick and easy assembly. Although its use is intended for the period from December to May, it can be used at any time depending on the weather. Installation at a sufficient safety height is recommended where people or animals have very difficult access without the use of a ladder or similar.

¿WHY ARE PROCESSIONARY CATERPILLARS HARMFUL TO DOGS?
Pets are the big ones affected by the processionary caterpillar. This crawling insect is very dangerous for dogs, cats or domestic production animals that inhabit farms. If the animals come into contact with the caterpillar, usually through smell, it uses a defense mechanism through which it gets rid of small hairs that it throws like darts and that negatively affects the mucous membranes, mouth, eyes and tongue, among others. In addition to causing itching and pain, it is very harmful to health since if it were to affect the larynx or respiratory tract it could cause serious health problems and, in some cases, suffocation.
