We had a bad year withthem a few years ago. I think they eat leave on the trees. They caused a lot of damage at the horse farms around here because they would feast on the cherry trees and then leave their ,well their poop in the pastures. I guess there is some toxin in the cherry trees. The horses would eat it when they ate the grass. It caused a lot of the pregnant mares to miscarry.
