Residents Warned To A Stay Away From Hairy Caterpillars

Digging For Caterpillar

Do you have a fear of bugs?

When you thought we'd seen everything 2020 can throw our way - here come the poison caterpillars.

The Virginia Department of Forestry has received multiple reports of the Puss Caterpillar, one of the most venomous caterpillars in the U.S. Puss Caterpillars have a thick, furry coat that conceals venomous spines.

Their sting is excruciating and can cause a rash, vomiting, swollen glands, and fever.

Puss Caterpillars aren't typically seen this far north - which researchers say could be due to climate change.
