The Spotted Lanternfly spread

I'm in ground zero for these darn things. They haven't hatched yet around me so we're crawling under our trucks every day looking for egg masses. (Which look like a mud splatter) I know before they instituted this quarantine last summer they were crawling all over the landing gear on a dozen trailers in the yard and many of those units have been out over the road already.

The good news is after last summer they've been finding out what kills them and there's been some progress with a mushroom or fungus. I think Penn State has a lab working on an aerosol application. So hopefully we can find a way to kill these buggers.

 

NJ has more SLF spread.
The dangerous spotted lanternfly has now spread to 7 N.J. counties. ‘If you see it, kill it.’

 

Colors? Hay-ul.

*Draws .45 starts blasting.

Never know if a diamondback (One that has my number on it personally... ) or a Moccasin might be around.

To be fair we had garden snakes before near our shed for years. They knew were around in the same areas they are around calling it home.

It worked out well for the most part.
