Those zig zag lines are CLM at work. I have been catching spiders and ladybugs from other parts of my yard and releasing them on the citrus trees to see if the "natural predator" strategy works on the CLM. You can give that a try too Smile In my case, i just hate to see all the wrecked new growth on my most treasured trees.
