Can you please tell me what is eating my photinia leaves. There seems to be hundreds of small larve cocoons on what is left of the leaves. Some of these bigger cocoons are about an inch to 2 inches long . How do I get rid of these as I don't want it to spread throughout the whole hedge. There is about 5trees affected by this in a hedge of about 100 meters .
