NTHA is holding a “Spotted Lanternfly Informational Meeting” on Tuesday, February 27th in Mayfield, PA from 6:30-8:30 PM.

There is currently a quarantine in place for 13 counties in southeastern Pennsylvania to try to stop the movement of the invasive pest. This pest is a native of China, and could possibly work its way into our region. This destructive insect feeds on a variety of over 70 species of plants including hardwood trees, grapes, apples, peaches, ailanthus, hops and certain ornamental plants.
