    Seems like a moth larva... Wait for the answer of a proper expert though.

    Yes, it's a caterpillar, from a moth or butterfly. Not dangerous unless (possibly) your nephews eat them. I don't know what kind it is, so I can't say whether it's toxic to eat. If your nephews leave them alone, which they should anyway, there is no danger.

    Found a good site... from a friend.

    Search - BugGuide.Net

    Check it. For the safe or not question, asking is right!
