People 'feel trapped in homes' because of caterpillars
People living in Portland in Dorset say they feel trapped in their homes - because of an invasion of toxic caterpillars.
The mild winter and warm spring weather has resulted in millions of brown-tail moth caterpillars leaving their nests in nearby brambles.
Residents are being warned not to touch them because their long hairs contain a toxin that can trigger headaches and breathing difficulties. Richard Slee reports.
