SLF egg masses have been reported in PA. Have you seen any? Egg masses are 1" long and covered in a white, putty-like substance. You may find egg masses on any hard surface (trees, fencing, rocks, and more). To kill them, scrape them into a container of rubbing alcohol!
Oh no @kristy_biehl ! Please report it using our online reporting system! extension.psu.edu/spotted-la…
Just found a spotted lantern fly at my house. This is the first one I’ve ever seen here.
They’re coming.

Sharing info on #SpottedLanternfly at the #EasternNativeGrassSymposium because even though #SLF targets woody species, permit requirements affect all businesses working across or w/in quarantine bounds. For more, find @agsciences extension resources here: extension.psu.edu/spotted-la….
Do you notice the difference between these two female spotted lanternflies? Both were taken today, but one is from southeastern PA, while the other was taken by @dkirkpatrick12 in Virginia. Those growing degree days can really make a difference in egg development for females!

When you have to run research trials on spotted lanternfly and do a webinar on the same day, you end up in the kids section of a Barnes and Noble with @Julie_Urban. We hope to see you on the @NortheastIPM webinar today!

One Spotted Lanternfly has been discovered in two counties in NY - Yates in the Finger Lakes, and Albany County. These probably came in on vehicles, but because they are in the egg laying stage now that does not bode well. dec.ny.gov/press/114646.html @StopSLF @SpottedWatch #badbug

For some reason, Chinese takeout doesn’t sound so good after long day of fieldwork... @StopSLF

Muhlenberg Township resident Heidi Zimmerman found a predator of the #spottedlanternfly in her backyard recently. Now all #Berks County needs is an army of praying mantises!
