This just happened yesterday, my wife didn't see the stinging caterpillar on the lawn chain when she say down. So she ran inside, I was in the kitchen, she was pulling off her one piece bathing suit, crying that her butt was on fire. This has happened before with the kids especially, the treatment is to use a piece of tape to remove the spines, then treat with a meat tenderizer paste. So there she is, her bathing suit around her knees, bent over the counter, while I treat her pretty ass. Then our bug man, who we have known for 30 years, is spraying around the back of the house, looks into the window at this wonderful sight.
I turn, smile and wave at him, he looks for just a second or two before moving on, my wife asks, "what are you doing?" I say "waving to Red". That's all it took for her to forget the sting, scream and run to the bedroom with her suit around her knees.
