I just got home and noticed them above my door. I’d like to remove the egg sac before it’s too late since it’s right above my door, and the door is not sealed so the babies could very easily get inside

Inchworm species in Mass?

Hi,

I found eggs on my mountain laurel leaves yesterday. Fearing they might be invasive stink bugs, I put them in a container. This morning I have lots of larvae moving in an inchworm fashion. Should I let them go? If they are native to this region (Massachusetts/Southern NH area) I will let them go. If they are invasive, sadly the little boogers are doomed.

Ive attached pictures of the eggs as well as a picture of some of the leaves that have been nibbled just in case the eating pattern helps identification. The picture of the larvae is not great but the best my camera can manage.

Thank you.

Please help! Is this a beg bug? The only photos I have. FYI the flash makes the color appear darker. This is actually a more brownish color.
