No, caterpillars do not bite. They simply don't have teeth, and you are probably wondering how they eat their food.

However, this hard shell will not hurt you, and a caterpillar wouldn't think to bite you.
What to do for a caterpillar bite or sting?
Caterpillars are leaf eaters, not meat eaters. As such, caterpillar jaws do not secrete any poison or venom to immobilize their prey. The "bite" of a caterpillar is more of a pinch than a bite. Unlike bees or wasps, caterpillars do not have stingers - a caterpillar has no mechanism to inject poison of any sort into you. Some caterpillars have a type of fur. The individual hairs can be irritating, like fiberglass, but this is a mechnical irritation. Some caterpillars might have hidden claws,but it doesn't need that much medical atention, you might need a band-aid but nothing more. I have expirienced this before.

Caterpillars do not bite in the same way that some insects do, as they lack biting mouthparts.
