Abstract
In recent years there has been increasing occurrence of outbreaks of nettle caterpillars Limacodidae and bagworms Psychidae on oil palms in Sumatra. Various attempts at control have been made with a range of very different outcomes from continuing worsening recurrence to success. This paper considers these outbreaks in terms of the ecology in relation to existing knowledge of the importance of background natural enemy control and then describes some estate situations and a trial programme to further develop selective control measures to terminate outbreaks.
