“The recommended course of action is to eliminate it” if you come upon a lanternfly. The adults or nymphs may be immediately squashed.

Protecting our plants and ecosystem requires taking action against lanternflies. If you come across one, bear in mind the harm they may do and take action to maintain the health of our ecosystems.
