Yike, that IS creepy! I thought it was just going to be tent caterpillars like we used to get on our pecan trees every year... and I though "ho-hum..." But that is really gross!

Yes - that is nightmarishly creepy - kind of makes my skin crawl. I am not overly fond of caterpillars anyway - had a poisonous one drop on me from a tree many years ago - had to make an emergency run to hospital and had a bruise the size of an orange on the inside of my arm for weeks. I stay away from them!

Ugh!!

Wow! That's really creepy! After Laura's discription I was thinking, oh ok 1,000 tent caterpiller webs hanging from trees....

Nope.

edit: expression of scared face. lol
