Expert Response

Im not certain of the species from the picture. It could be an armyworm. If you're only finding a few of these, I would not be concerned for the lawn health. Again, this might be an incidental caterpillar (like the one in your other questsion). Even if it is an armyworm, they do not spend the winter in MI and will die when a freeze arrives.
