MANTECA-
Manteca residents saw an infestation of caterpillars leave their neighborhood just as quickly as they arrived.
One neighbor living off South Manteca Road said there were so many caterpillars, it looked like “the street was moving.”
All that remains now of the infestation are a few stragglers.
San Joaquin County agriculture officials explained to the Manteca Bulletin that the migration of the caterpillars was unusual, but it’s not unusual to get an occasional flareup in certain insect populations.
