*** We used to and still do call these little dudes “asps”. ***

Met a couple at the hospital. The husband ended up getting his left leg amputated after a sting.

When they grow up, they are called flannel moths. They seem to like my ligustrums, crawling on my car, and the lid of my gas grill. (....Shudder....)

I grabbed one while weeding a flower bed. The only thing that helped was ice, but not much.
