Don't like your trees? These things can defoliate and kill your trees. I don't think alien infestations even do that (they're more into mind control and the like)!

Take some good macro shots, and then...

nuuuuuuu they're caterpillars! they'll turn into butterflies!

Kill it with fire only applies to creepy insects like spiders and centipedes.

If that is going to happen, they are going to be everywhere. You are going to see them on just about every tree and covering just about all of ever tree.

Just one finding of tent caterpillars, no big deal, it's almost autumn. They will be gone soon and long forgotten.

They come and go. Some years is very bad, some you hardly see them. I found 1 or 2 on my fruit trees. They are still out there. They won't be there in a few months and chances are, they won't be there next year.

Speaking of caterpillars, my daughters have a glass covered with aluminum foil with a caterpillar they 'caught'. It is their 'pet'. We were out all day, and as we entered the house when we got home, my wife asks, "Girls, where's your caterpillar? Is it still in the glass?" "Yeah, it's still in there," they say looking in the glass. "Then what's this thing crawling across my kitchen ceiling?"

You can kill anything with fire.

if its the same thing we had here(looks like it is)
they will eat every bit of it.
