Symptoms of Pseudodementia. A person may appear confused, exhibit symptoms that have to do with any of the conditions associated with pseudodementia. For instance, if they are depressed, they may experience depressive symptoms such as sleep disturbance, and complain of memory impairment and other cognitive problems.
Despite the damage they can cause, it is worth noting that trees can be surprisingly resilient in the face of an infestation. Tent caterpillars cause trees to defoliate, which is a problem, but an established tree can withstand 25 percent defoliation without succumbing to any problems.
They leave the tent during the day to feed and return to it at night. As the caterpillars eat and grow larger, the tent grows larger also. It can get to be about two feet long. Eastern Tent Caterpillar Moths especially prefer Black Cherry as a host plant (food plant for caterpillars).Other common host plants include trees and shrubs in the Roseaceae family, such as hawthorns.he eggs overwinter and hatch the following Spring. When the larvae (caterpillars) hatch, they are small. They immediately climb up the tree to a crotch of branches and build a silk tent. Eastern Tent Caterpillars use the tent for protection.
