Do any of you fellers know what kind of a caterpillar this is? He and 2 buddies were eating the leaves on my wife's Satsuma tree. It is a young tree, still in a pot so it can be put in the green house in the winter. Been gone from the orange groves too many years to know anything about what this critter is and how to control them. They were about 2" long and were equipped with great camo!
