The Danger of Processionary Caterpillars in Pine Trees

The Pine Processionary Caterpillar is a major threat to pets and children across the Axarquia, from Competa to Torrox. These pests nest in Pine trees and descend in spring, posing serious health risks due to their toxic hairs.

Early detection and removal are key. If you spot white, cotton-like nests in your pine trees, contact Montaña Tree Services immediately. We offer safe and effective processionary caterpillar removal in Frigiliana, Sayalonga, and beyond. Do not attempt to remove them yourself. Our professional team has the safety gear and expertise to handle this hazardous task, keeping your family and pets safe from harm.
