Tiger Moth

Asura conferta

The caterpillar of this is smallish and they proliferate in moist places of houses in large large numbers. Rainy season 'pest' though they don't do any damage to plants.

They are so profuse in the rainy season -August to October that it is a real problem to humans only if they get pricked by the hairs!
