I think the JBs are about done here. Good!

Re: Bug/Pest Identification....Help!
We suddenly have tons of these caterpillars around the yard. Can't find them online to ID them. Some things I have noticed about them - they are hard to squish. It's like trying to squish bubble gum. They are rubbery.
They can't walk on slick surfaces. The pic shows some of them that I put in an old flower pot. They did not climb out and died in there. Today there was one in the bed of my pickup. I have a plastic bed liner and it was having a hard time getting around in there.
Then there's the matter of their scat. They pee? At least the one in the bed of the pickup did.
I first noticed them coming out of a clump of ornamental grass that the kittens have almost killed.
So far I haven't seen them eating on anything but I am sure they are. Any ideas?
