Default what are these cobwebs

i have noticed over the last few weeks that hedges in the local area have these emormous "cobwebs" covering them,

it looks like the cobwebs you would buy at Halloween but on closer inspection it was that each individual leaf had hundreds and thousands of wrigglers on each leaf and these were individually wrapped in a web and where the grubs eat the leaf and then eat their way out of the cobweb so that the entire hedge is left without any leaves and has the appearance of being dead

noone i have spoken to have ever seen this before, even long established farmers have ever seen this and they are everywhere around the area

anyone know what these are???

and there are thousands and thousands of these wrigglers/grubs
