Spilosoma virginica is a species of moth in the subfamily Arctiinae. As a caterpillar, it is known as the..... yellow woolly bear or yellow bear caterpillar...... As an adult, it is known as the Virginia tiger moth.
NIKK...I was hanging 2 rugs outside and look what I came across...I have never seen a yellow woolly bear worm here in southern IN.

In TX, we have web worms that destroy trees. They get into our pecan trees. Sometimes people try to spray or burn them out. But they come back every year. Some years, they have covered the house. Literally, covered the house and come inside through any little crack. Don't know why but there's usually a house attack about 1:30 pm daily in this time of year.

That’s crazy looking. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a caterpillar exactly like that. Cool!
