Hi Kimberly -
I believe what you have there is the Azalea argid sawfly larva. I found a link that will explain how to deal with them: https://extension.umn.edu/yard-and-garden-insects/sawflies There are many different types of sawflies. This has been an education, so I appreciate you sending this in.
I hope this helps.
