Virginia forestry officials are warning the public to stay away from a hairy caterpillar spotted in a some eastern Virginia Counties. Although the so-called “puss caterpillar” looks almost cute enough to pet, do not. It is one of the most venomous caterpillars in the U.S. The “hairs” are venomous spines that can cause intense pain, rash, nausea, fever, muscle cramps, swollen glands and shock. If you encounter the caterpillar, reports WAVY TV, give it a wide berth and let its natural enemies control the population.
When caterpillars start emerging in the guise of Rod Blagojevich’s hair piece, you know we are reaching the end times.
