That makes sense. I bet all the people that are saying "eww" wouldn't be so disgusted if the images were of single silkworms.

Despite looking amazing I still feel like a billion of them are crawling on me and I've gone numb.

It might be the Nyquil though.

I've had this in my backyard before. Just kill it with spray when they first appear. Gotta do it every year on the same tree. Kill before they are even born.

Aren't these the caterpillars that come out once ever 7 years? I've heard of something like that. But yea, wow. The last pics made them look like soldiers lol. The bike...

Edit: They're silkworms right? Hm...dayum.

I'm like this. Especially if it they were spiders. Spiders are my biggest phobia (too lazy to give the exact phobia), so if all these pics were spiders then I'd feel goosebumps. Caterpillars don't bug me at all though. I don't know why that is, are phobias genetic? The thing I don't like about spiders are the fangs and the fact that I assume they're all deadly. I don't like the way they walk either. It's not the look though. I have hermit crabs and they don't frighten me one bit. I should do some reasearch/googling.

It looks amazing in the pictures, but I wouldn't like to be anywhere near it in real life.

My impression of this site as taken from its various other images.

Wish I understood this O_O
