what kind of bug is this?

[pg55]

One of my grape vines was being eaten up. I got some Sevin and sprayed.
About 30 of these insects drop out after the spray took effect. They are good bugs now since they are dead. What the heck are they?

My BIL is a PhD entomologist. Whatever small caterpillar this is is not in the same area he specializes in, but I sent the pic to him for you and will let you know what he says.

Winner winner chicken dinner. My BIL indicates that this was the opinion of a professional at Purdue University as well.

Good thing they are dead.

Ok, So how does one get rid of them?

BT (Bacillus thuringiensis) should kill them, it is organic and safe to use and kills all caterpillars like tent worms.

I had some Sevin on hand and that is what got them. I only spray when I see a problem. Thanks to every one for the info.
