Poisonous caterpillars strike in South London

More than 30 people needed medical care for rashes after an infestation of poisonous caterpillars.

Victims were hit by the Brown Tail Moth caterpillars which are covered in hairs that can cause severe allergic reactions and in some cases, temporary blindess.

The infestations in Croydon, South London, has been blamed on the unseasonably warm weather.

Those Poms don’t know what poisonous is…come to Australia for a visit (that way at least we know you’re going back home)…everything can kill you over here.
