Invasion of the Caterpillars
Pretty cool or pretty creepy?
(WTSB) The green and yellowish caterpillars are hanging from just about everything...off the playground equipment, off the trees and even off of cars and people if you happen to get in the way.
"I feel like they're climbing on me. They're hanging on trees, they're hanging off of the children's equipment and it's just ooey gooey," said June Chittenden.
Jane Morse, with the Pinellas County Extension says the caterpillars are the larvae of either oak leafrollers or oakleaftier moths.
