Ridgewood NJ, from the Tree Foundation , this week’s weather is warming up! Get outside and hunt Spotted Lanternfly egg masses. When you find them, crush them! Use an old bank card, small rolling pin or putty knife. If you find egg masses on your property from September to May, you can scrape them off using a plastic card or putty knife. Scrape them into a bag or container filled with rubbing alcohol or hand sanitizer and keep them in this solution permanently. Egg masses that are scraped to the ground can still hatch, so it is important to follow all steps! Egg masses can also be smashed, but be sure to apply even and forceful pressure to the entire egg mass. A properly smashed egg will burst open. You can learn more about this method by watching our how-to video: ” How To Remove Spotted Lanternfly Eggs .” Remember that some eggs will be very difficult or even unreachable at the tops of trees, in other well-hidden areas, and they may be present throughout your neighborhood and community. Be aware that this method may reduce the number of nymph or adult Spotted Lanternfly you see later in the year but most likely will not eliminate the population completely from your area.
