What is the spotted lanternfly (SLF)?
SLF is an invasive pest from Asia that primarily feeds on tree of heaven (Ailanthus altissima) but can also feed on a wide variety of plants such as grapevine, hops, maple, walnut, fruit trees and others. This insect could impact New York's forests as well as the agricultural and tourism industries. Learn more at our Speaking of Nature Talk with Tim Weigle, statewide grape and hops Integrated Pest Management specialist with the New York State IPM Program, Cornell Cooperative Extension.
