For those of you who have never seen them, attached photos of Processionary Caterpillars, seen this morning at Camping Cabopino, near Marbella.
Even though the campsite has sprayed the pine trees, this batch of about 100 were seen escaping today. All they want to do is find some earth & burrough down. However, with all the tarmac around, they find it difficult & sometimes travel across pitches.
They are extremely harmful to pets & can give a human a nasty cough & itch, as they each have up to 50000 microscopic hairs.
It is advisable not to touch them & keep your eyes out for the next month or so. Keep your pets safe.
