Overview
Spotted lanternfly (Lycorma delicatula White) is a sap-sucking insect with many known plant hosts, native and non-native alike. Human-assisted movement poses a significant threat, as this insect is capable of hitchhiking at any life stage. Any property or plant material from areas with known spotted lanternfly infestations should be inspected thoroughly to prevent its spread. Limiting the spread of spotted lanternfly will limit the impact on lumber, orchard, and vineyard sectors. (2 pages)
