An update on the invasive Spotted Lanternfly
Update: 2025-05-22
Description
In the beginning of April we invited Dr. Tracy Leskey (Director/Research Leader from ARS/USDA Appalachian Fruit Research Station) to give us an update on the invasive Spotted Lanternfly. We learn where they came from and how they spread and became an invasive pest. We discuss whether they will affect trees in the forest and how researchers are using eDNA (environmental DNA) to learn more about them. Finally, we talked about what listeners can do at home to help combat this pest, from traps to insecticides to reporting to extension offices.
