Default Brown Tail Moth Infestation in Maine

Brown tail moth caterpillars love oak trees, and unfortunately these miserable things will eventually spread throughout New England and beyond.

I'll take the love bugs any day over this plague. Rashes are extremely common with folks. Contact with the caterpillars is not necessarily as their toxic hairs fly about. Yardwork becomes extremely hazardous. Raking leaves, mowing lawns... augh...

My wife never gets the rash. I'm beginning to think I married an alien.
