The rash and irritation is cause by a mite on the caterpillar. How does she not know this? Anyways if youre itchy apply vaseline and the itch will subside. Some areas in Texas these caterpillars have a lot of mites and some not so many. So if you have little ones who play with caterpillars and they break out in a rash and you're not near a shower or bath, I use Vicks vapor rub, works quick for relief.
