When I was a kid, our neighbors had a caterpillar infestation. Unfortunately, the little critters don't respect fence lines and that made for an entire summer spent avoiding the back yard. I can still remember trying to walk through the yard without stepping on any. Impossible. Squish, squish, squish.

But it beats the frog infestation my father remembers from his childhood. (Full body shudder.)
