Ich habe einige davon auf meiner Einfahrt gesehen. Sind sie die Art, die dir einen schrecklichen Ausschlag geben? Nicht, dass ich vorhat, sie zu berühren, aber ich habe kleine Kinder und werde die Raupen an anderer Stelle bewegen, wenn es nötig ist. Danke!

Yes keep them away from pets and kids they can cause irritation/rashes
Oooow cute. No it’s okay!!
This caterpillar sometimes squirts a liquid that can cause you some infection or itching and rash! It is best not to come into contact with it, especially children and animals! They usually fall from pine trees in the spring
Run you fool!
Martui in February
Don’t kill it. Your hair will fall.
This is a martoui (Ocnogyna (loweii) Cypriaca). NOT a pine processionary caterpillar.

Do you owe it money?
Yeah, that’s Terry. He has a concealed pocket knife and enjoys peeking through bathroom and bedroom windows. He’s been warned by the police but nothing stops the hairy bastard.

I have never tried touching them, but basing on available info I placed the two kinds together, so that it is easier to compare
