Penn State Extension will hold another in its series of public meetings on the spotted lanternfly at Mt. Airy United Fellowship Church, 701 W. Johnston Street in Philadelphia starting from 7:00 to 8:00 p.m.
The spotted lanternfly presents a significant threat to Pennsylvania agriculture, including the grape, tree-fruit, hardwood and nursery industries, which collectively are worth nearly $18 billion to the state's economy.
The public can do a great deal to stop the spread of this invasive insect. Learn how by attending this meeting.
