I have a severe phobia of living things which are puffy and soft like Lizards, snakes etc and the caterpillar is one of them. We had a lot of trees and plants at our home when we were kids but the number of plants has reduced the time due to construction over the time.

Naturally, the phobia is more severe when one is a kid and the same thing happened to me as well. I used to do gardening myself when I was a kid. I really miss those days now. Once I was sitting in the plants and was trying to cut the harmful grass from the roots of the plants when unknowingly a caterpillar had climbed to my clothes. It had entered the inner side of my clothes and I could feel some puffy thing in my clothes but was not sure what it is. Once I realized that it is moving, I quickly jumped and took off my shirt. I realized that a big caterpillar is moving on my body and started crying. My mom came quickly and started laughing.
