Who doesn’t like a fuzzy little caterpillar, even if they might have small amounts of toxin in their barbs? I noticed this on my rain barrel as I was tending to my pumpkins:
It would appear to be an American dagger moth. I reviewed a number of sites, but the general consensus is that it’s pretty benign, content to simply munch on a few tree leaves. Very well, young moth. You may stay, but I shall not extend such courtesies to your hornworm cousins.
