Stop the Spotted Lanternfly
* The Spotted Lanternfly (SLF), Lycorma delicatula
(White), is an invasive planthopper native to China,
India, and Vietnam.
* The Spotted Lanternfly was first discovered in
Pennsylvania in Berks County and has spread to
other counties in the Commonwealth. This insect
has the potential to greatly impact agricultural
crops such as grapes, hops, and hardwoods.
* If you are in the quarantine area, please " Look
Before You Leave. " Inspecting your vehicles,
trailers, or any outdoor items for Spotted
Lanternflies before you move around
or out of the quarantine is important.
* If possible, do not park in tree lines, and keep
windows rolled up when you park your vehicle.
* Know the life stages of the insect and when to
look for it.
