I did the Del Ag training for these for our guys a few months ago.
State web page/info has high concentration in Wilmington area.
Hopefully, they stay up there but I lost a decent oak tree unexpectedly some time ago in Dorchester.
I suspect it was the bugs.

They are going to be a real problem. They will kill grapes, hops, barley. Their main host is tree of heaven, but they will gather on lots of trees.

Been seeing some late nymphs on the blackberry bushes. Spray Dawn has been working well.

They can take all the "Trees from Hell" oops, I meant "Tree of Heaven" that they want from my place.
My boss lives in Reading PA and they have had them for about 5 years now. I am told they are very destructive.
He says the most common way of combating them is to wrap the base of trees with a fly paper like ribbon and the larvae will get stuck on it as they climb up the tree.
My understanding is they originated (first sighted) in the Allentown / Reading area. Interestingly, I think this was the same originating point as the infamous Stink bugs.

Those little SOBS bite!!
You mean the orange ones? We have a bumper crop of them too. Seem to come this time of the year. They flock to my porch lights all night, then in the morning, the birds come in and wear them out for breakfast
Haven't seen any lanternflys yet.
