Ever seen a four inch long caterpillar?

[nodtveidt]

Until today, I hadn't. But we found several of them on our new land in Quebradillas. Massive caterpillars known as Pseudosphinx Tetrio, destroying one of our nicer plants. Found out what they were when we got home and looked 'em up on good ole Google. Luckily they're not toxic to humans, so it looks like I'm gonna go get rid of them on Saturday...

Seeing a yard full of those would scare the crap out of me.

No need to ship any, its easy to make anywhere! Just dissolve some styrofoam in some gasoline and walla! You have some napalm. Melts the skin right off of your  enemies, guaranteed!

Unfortunately, there are simply too many of them on our land. They are destroyers, and we have some very nice plants on our land to allow such ravaging. I had no choice but to terminate them all. Since they are known to be toxic but I can't verify their toxicity to humans, I had to use a safe method.
