We call them tent catepillars. You can spray them, burn their nests or use TreeHelp Bug Bands (sticky) which go around the trunk of the tree in early spring to keep the bugs from crawling from the ground up into the tree.

I used to make blackberry jam. Place I used to live in back when I was married had a mess of blackberry bushes around it. I used to get berries about as big around as my thumb

If I guy showcased on "Ripley's...Believe It Or Not!" can live on rotten meat he lets rot in a jar for over a year, I'm sure you can eat anything form a can. I wouldn't keep something for more than a year, but food that is well-sealed in a can and has no defects in the can such as a dent or especially an outward bubble (this is a gas bubble formed by bacteria) can last for many years. Jams and jellies you can probably eat after 5 years for sure if it still smells fine and doesn't taste like tin.

One sure way of telling if the seal is good is if you hear a sound when opening the jar. It's like opening a carbonated drink. If you don't hear that sound, toss it

Roy i'm in a woods since i remember myself(thanks to my mother) So...I know mushrooms...hey i'm still alive after all lol
I use Baking Soda to wash jars and covers, then I boil jars and covers for 10-15min ...take them out ...turn them up side down on a clean towel ...let them to cool down a little bit ...Oh yes...just small detail ...after jars are sealed again i turning them up side down covering them with kitchen towel and leaving them for the night ..keepthem in dark cool storage 3 years is maximum. Roy please if you will need translation ... just ask me ... i know my English is sucks...
