Our dogwood bush is being invaded by dogwood sawfly larvae. I’m going to clip the heavily covered branches.
Does anyone know if it would be safe to place them in the coop for the chickens to eat?

Okay so I put a small branch in there and the girls are more interested in the dogwood bush leaves than the larvae! A few have tried them but are not nearly as crazy as they go for other bugs.
