OFFICIALS: DESTROY THE SPOTTED LANTERNFLY
- Thread starter Teegate
- Start date
And.....living in Berks County it has been reported in only 3 or 4 townships.....so far. Efforts to get the word out to the public have been very successful and I doubt there is anybody going into the woods that is not looking for it. Seems very similar to the stinkbug invasion that began here several years ago although they are much more widespread than the Lanternfly.
