Why Is the Spotted Lanternfly Such a Problem?

Spotted lanternflies can make a beautiful yard feel messy and hard to enjoy in a hurry. Since its first detection in Pennsylvania in 2014, this invasive pest has spread to 19 states and the District of Columbia, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

They excrete large quantities of sugary, sticky waste called honeydew that coats surfaces and leads to sooty mold, creating more problems in the places where your family plays, relaxes, and spends time outside.

Spotted lanternflies do not stay put for long. Feeding on over 70 plant species, including grapevines, fruit trees, hops, and hardwoods, once they drain one food source, they move across your yard to the next, spreading damage through trees, shrubs, and landscaping before you know it.

They also hitch rides on vehicles, outdoor furniture, and other everyday surfaces where they lay eggs, which makes it easier for infestations to return season after season.

Get Ahead of Spotted Lanternfly Infestations

Without treatment, SLF populations keep building from one season to the next. We inspect your property, find the places where they are feeding and resting, and treat underbrush, shrubs, juvenile trees, tree trunks, and nearby structures to bring numbers down and interrupt the infestation cycle.

Your local technician knows what drives spotted lanternfly activity in this area, so your treatment is built around what is happening in your yard, not a one-size-fits-all plan.

Lanternfly Treatments That Protect Your Entire Property

You should be able to step onto the patio, spend time by the pool, or let the kids and dog out back without wondering what spotted lanternflies have left behind. Every treatment Mosquito Authority of Edison, NJ applies is EPA-approved and handled by licensed professionals who know how to target lanternfly activity with care.

Treatments are safe for children and pets once dry, and we apply them away from flowering plants so pollinators like bees are not affected.

It is an easier way to keep your backyard, deck, and lawn comfortable, usable, and ready whenever you want to be outside. If spotted lanternflies come back between scheduled visits, we’ll come back and retreat for free.

What to Do If You See a Spotted Lanternfly

Spotted lanternflies spread quickly because egg masses often get moved without anyone noticing. Acting early helps protect more of your property and slows the spread before it reaches more trees, surfaces, and outdoor areas around your home. Here are the steps to take right away:

Check your vehicle, trailer, and outdoor equipment for egg masses before traveling
Scrape egg masses directly into a bag of rubbing alcohol or hand sanitizer to destroy them
Remove any tree-of-heaven from your property, a primary host that draws in SLF
Use circle or sticky traps on trees to capture nymphs and adults
Report sightings to your state department of agriculture

From November through April, scraping and destroying egg masses on your property is one of the best ways to reduce next season’s population.

Signs of a Spotted Lanternfly Infestation on Your Property

Catching an infestation early gives you a better shot at protecting your yard before the damage spreads. Spotted lanternflies leave behind a few clear signs, and once you know what to look for, they are easier to spot around your home, patio, and other outdoor living spaces.

Some of the most common signs include:

Large groups of insects congregating on tree trunks or the sides of structures
Sticky, shiny honeydew buildup on surfaces beneath feeding areas
Black sooty mold growing on plants or ground cover below active feeding zones
Grey, mud-like egg masses approximately one inch long on trees, fences, or outdoor furniture
Oozing or weeping from tree bark accompanied by a fermented odor

If you notice any of these, do not wait for the population to grow. Call Mosquito Authority of Edison, NJ. We’ll inspect your yard, confirm how far the infestation has spread, and put a treatment plan in place as soon as possible.
