The Spotted Lanternfly (SLF) Is an invasive, destructive insect that first arrived in Berks County in 2014. It has now spread into Montgomery and Delaware Counties over the past two years, and we expect that next year, its presence will continue and expand. The potential for economic damage and residential property destruction is significant.
Haverford College Arboretum will host a briefing on what you can do to minimize the insect's impact on your property and the environment. Penn State Master Gardener, Sam Barnett will describe the nature of this insect, how you can identify it, and what you can do to help control its spread.
Sam has been gardening for decades and has been a Master Gardener since 2009. He is the lead educator on Spotted Lanternfly for Delaware County and speaks on a range of Horticultural topics for the Master Gardeners.
This event will take place via Zoom and the event link will be emailed to participants in the confirmation email generated from program registration.
