2 On September 22, 2014, the Entomology Program of the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture received a report from an educator from the Pennsylvania Game Commission The report detailed damage to Ailanthus altissima (Tree of Heaven) on private property in Eastern Berks County, PA being caused by an unknown insect
3 The spotted lanternfly is native to Asia and is found in China, Bangladesh, Vietnam It was introduced to Japan, South Korea and Pennsylvania In South Korea, it is considered an invasive pest and impacts grapes and peaches
4 Current Distribution
5 Spotted Lanternfly makes use of over 70 different plant species, but strongly prefers the invasive Tree of Heaven Tree of Heaven Distribution-USDA PLANTS Database
6 What Is At Risk for Pennsylvania? Current Values of Some Commodities Affected Forest Products: $16.7 billion Grapes: $28 million Apples: $87 million Peaches: $19 million Nursery and Landscape: $944 million Unable to Estimate Value of Losses Property Values Tourism at PA parks and Game Lands PA Ecosystems New Business Initiatives Port of Philadelphia PA Preferred Brew >

8 Impact: Damage reported on basil, blueberry, cucumber and horseradish in 2017
9 Adults: July - December Egg Laying: September - November Eggs: October - June One Generation Per Year Fourth Instar: July - September Hatch and 1st Instar: May - June Third Instar: June - July Second Instar: June - July
10 Egg masses contain between eggs, are laid on many different objects, and are often well hidden
11 All life stages can hitchhike to new areas, but eggs and adults pose the greatest risk for movement
12 Removal-Trap Tree Method Most Ailanthus are removed or killed with herbicide Incorporate in Vegetation Management Plans
13 Host Reduction Remove Most Ailanthus Leave a few male trees and treat with systemic insecticide
14 Trap trees July-September 4th Instar and Adults SLFs concentrate to feed on Tree of Heaven with insecticide and die
15 Impact on Adults is Dramatic
16 Impact: Adult clustering, swarming and Honeydew accumulation can impact quality of life.

19 As the population of spotted lanternfly grows, and the insect adapts, new threats to multiple industries emerge It is clear that more help is needed to contain this pest Everyone needs to work to control the insect
20 South Korea at 38,622 sq. miles is slightly smaller than Pennsylvania at 46,055 sq. miles South Korea completely infested in 3 years with 3 introductions PA still contained to small area, 1 introduction
21 Quarantine
22 Quarantine Covers all life stages and conveyances Limits movement of commodities and home articles May allow continued interstate and international trade. Requires inspection and safe movement from the quarantine Slows processes and trade down, but does not completely stop trade Wood recycling can still be completed, but may need think about how is done Lumber harvest may still be made, but may need timelines
23 Quarantine Working with Business Risk Assessment Education/Training Phytosanitary Certificate Permit Compliance Agreement Verification
24 Quarantine Phytosanitary Certificate Limited use Permits Working within the quarantine Lower risk Compliance Agreement Moving in and out of the quarantine Interstate/International businesses Higher risk for movement
25 Assistance With Compliance
26 Everyone is Threatened We must work together to control Integrated Pest Management Ailanthus control Insecticide Application Banding Egg Mass Scraping Look Before You Leave Educate the community residents and businesses Spotted Lanternfly will not eat buildings Spotted Lanternfly does not suck blood or bite people or animals Licensed Professionals for control
27 Spotted Lanternfly Biosecurity Everyone Can Help Contain Spotted Lanternfly While on the Job
28 Spotted Lanternfly Biosecurity
29 Spotted Lanternfly Biosecurity Spotted Lanternfly is an active hitchhiker and makes use of many modes of human assisted transport
30 Spotted Lanternfly Biosecurity Automobiles, Construction Equipment and Signs, Storage Pods, Yard Waste, Trains, Horse Trailers, Nursery Stock, Dog Crates, Pallets, Boats, Hunting Equipment, Campers, and any other object stored outside can all harbor Spotted Lanternfly life stages
31 Spotted Lanternfly Biosecurity You can prevent the spread of this unwanted pest by practicing biosecurity basics. First- Know the life stages of the pest and when they are likely to be a threat Second- Be aware of when you are in an infested area Third- Follow biosecurity best practices Fourth- Go the extra mile when you know you are exposed to Spotted Lanternfly
32 Spotted Lanternfly Biosecurity Adults: July 24-December Egg Laying: September - November Eggs: Late September-June Life Cycle One Generation Per Year Fourth Instar: July - September Hatch and 1st Instar: Late April- June Third Instar: June - Mid-July Second Instar: May - June
33 Spotted Lanternfly Biosecurity Adults and eggs pose the greatest risk for hitchhiking
34 Spotted Lanternfly Biosecurity Currently Spotted Lanternfly is only found in Southeastern Pennsylvania Take extra care when working in any area where the pest is known to exist. Maps showing infested and quarantined areas are posted weekly on this web-site: Quarantine Search Tool
35 Spotted Lanternfly Biosecurity Basic biosecurity for insect pests: Short Term If you live on an infested property or visit infested properties for work, be mindful that you, your vehicle, and your equipment are the potential pathways for the insect to hitchhike Whenever possible, do not park under trees or tree lines Avoid leaving vehicles open, shut windows, trunks, hatches, and tailgates if possible Tuck pant legs into socks to prevent adults from crawling inside your clothing, and check to ensure that none are resting on you before entering your vehicle In heavy infestations, insects may swarm, and preventing them from entering your vehicle can be a challenge, so take a moment to scan the interior of the vehicle and kill any specimens found before leaving the area
36 Spotted Lanternfly Biosecurity Basic biosecurity for insect pests: Short Term Equipment for the transport of live animals presents a special challenge. Horse trailers, dog crates, and bear traps are all open and exposed to easy entrance by swarming adults. When not in use, animal carriers should be stored so as to prevent insect entry and inspect them prior to use if in an infested area. Avoid storing these items in tree lines Consider screening or tarping if practical After use, inspect for hitchhikers and kill any found
37 Spotted Lanternfly Biosecurity Basic biosecurity for insect pests: Long Term From Mid-September through spring Spotted Lanternfly egg masses are the number one way this pest can move Equipment and materials stored outside can be a surface for egg laying Avoid parking equipment or stacking materials near tree lines Ensure that trimmed woody debris is chipped Before moving equipment or supplies from an infested area, inspect for and destroy any egg masses
38 Spotted Lanternfly Biosecurity Egg masses are easily controlled by scraping
39 Spotted Lanternfly Integrated Pest Management
40 Impact: Adults in high populations can be disruptive to residents and impact daily lives. Quality of life will be changed for many.
41 IPM for SLF Control SLF Requires Multiple Approaches Scraping Egg Masses Banding Trees Mechanical Removal and Processing Ailanthus Control Pesticide Applications Herbicide Systemic Contact
42 Adults: July - December Egg Laying: September - November Eggs: October - June One Generation Per Year Fourth Instar: July - September Hatch and 1st Instar: May - June Third Instar: June - July Second Instar: June - July
43 Scraping Control Scraping egg masses is something everyone can do PSU Extension has a video on proper techniques Removes eggs per mass Eggs laid on more than wood products.
44 Egg masses that can be seen or reached are easily controlled by scraping
45 Immature stages migrate up trees/plants each day and are easily caught on sticky tree bands
46 Banding Control Uses known behavior of nymphs going up trees each day against the insect Target Ailanthus if they are in the area No pesticides used with tree bands
47 Banding Control Glue is able to capture adults Always check bi-catch, sometimes birds going after insects for easy meals may end up on glue Volunteer banding program has about 34 volunteers. Extension will oversee
48 Mechanical Control Physical removal Exclusion from conveyances Swatting/Squishing Chipping Study shows chipping disrupts egg masses and prevents hatching
49 Predators Limited Observations of native predators Praying Mantis Wheel Bug/Assassin Beetle Parasitic Wasps Ooencyrtus kuvanae Development of new bio control
50 Insecticide Application
51 Insecticide Application Things to remember In PA pesticide applications are based on site location Pesticide efficacy are currently underway by PSU Extension Multiple insecticide products may be needed. Systemics for long term control Contact for population increase control Always read the label for rates and application procedures
52 Insecticide Application Not Viable Options The life cycle not conducive to aerial applications Fire and standing trees not a good combination Homemade mixtures
53 Insecticide Application Educate Community Help businesses and residents understand the need for multiple approaches Make sure people understand what the spotted lanternfly does not harm such as humans and pets Spotted lanternfly do not overwinter in houses Utilize licensed pesticide applicators
54 Spotted Lanternfly makes use of over 70 different plant species, but strongly prefers the invasive Tree of Heaven Tree of Heaven Distribution-USDA PLANTS Database
55 Ailanthus
56 Look Alikes Sumac Black Walnut
57 Ailanthus Control Ailanthus altissima or Tree of Heaven is considered an invasive weed Reproduces by seed and also root graft If not properly treated with herbicide, multiple shoots/trees can arise from one cut tree Treatment recommendations found on the Spotted Lanternfly webpage
58 Removal-Trap Tree Method Most Ailanthus are removed or killed with herbicide
59 Host Reduction Remove Most Ailanthus Leave a few male trees and treat with systemic insecticide Treating in May or June will also kill nymphs and will be fully integrated into tree for adult feeding.
60 Trap trees July-September 4th Instar and Adults SLFs concentrate to feed on Tree of Heaven with insecticide and die
61 Impact on Adults is Dramatic
62 As the population of spotted lanternfly grows, and the insect adapts, new threats to multiple industries emerge It is clear that more help is needed to contain this pest
63 Industries, residents, and agencies must join forces to take steps to control spotted lanternfly
