The spotted lanternfly is an invasive pest found in several counties in the Northeast United States, and is threatening American agriculture and natural resources. It damages more than 70 types of plants, including grape vines, fruit trees, and hardwoods. We need your help to look for and report it! Spotted Lanternflies excrete a sticky fluid that promotes mold growth and weakens plants. First seen in Pennsylvania in 2014, this invasive pest has been found in nearby States because people unknowingly moved infested material or items containing egg masses.
