Processional caterpillars at the Montauban dog refuge

There is a problem with processional caterpillars at the chenil/ kennels, dog refuge at Montauban. The caterpillars when they leave their fluffy white nests high in fir and pine trees and walk in a line make an interesting spectacle. They are however very dangerous to us and pets. A line of caterpillars if threatened by bending over to look at them can send out 600,000 poisoned barbs. The kennels have sent in garbed workmen to safely dispose of them.
I have given a link to the article in case you have them and need to know more
