Drivers could face fines if they don't take training course to obtain permit
Commercial vehicles that travel through those quarantined areas of Pennsylvania are required to have a spotted lanternfly permit. Obtaining the permit is free, but drivers must take a two-hour training course on how to check their vehicles for the insect.
State police are already checking for the permits but will give drivers a grace period of about a month. After that, troopers could issue fines of up to $300.
My company told us the fine is up $20.000!!!

My company told us that there are 4 states affected in total so far... NJ counties are Warren, Hunterdon and Mercer.
VA county is Fredericks and DE is New Castle and pretty much areas along DE/PA state line... Also heard that NY is affected also but don't know what the affected areas are....
Very soon the whole country will be affected.... GREAT!!!

In traditional Chinese medicine, the spotted lanternfly is believed to be poisonous, and is used topically for relief from swelling.

Infosaur, dunchues, Rocks and 1 other person Thank this. -
it's always the truck drivers fault.
If I had crops at risk; I'd release those little green garden snakes. They're non-venomous and eat insects. There's several species of them; California has the most flamboyant.
