Your Question may have given me an answer too.
Close to where I live, there is an horse chestnut tree that is absolutely covered with this moth caterpillar, which mines in the leaves and I too have been sneasing a lot lately.
I do know that some moths, of the fury kind can actually be the cause of an irritation, wheather or not these caterpillars have the same effect remains to be answered, so I'll be watching this thread with interest.
