Are caterpillars lucky/benign or do they bring bad luck ?

1 Answer

Answer :

I think it just means you have a caterpillar in your bedroom. not so much lucky but if you feed him right you might be able to have him turn into a butterfly. I used to keep caterpillars and fed them on horthorne from outside my school but oneday they sprayed the hedge, i didnt realise and apparently didnt wash the horthorne well enough its difficult to do very well, its pretty spiky but anyway they died. gutted.
