Spotted lanternfly has been spotted in Cohoes NY

The Spotted Lanternfly (SLF) is an invasive insect from Asia that feeds on the sap of over 70 plant species, including grapes, hops, and hardwoods like tree-of-heaven. First discovered in Pennsylvania in 2014, it has since spread to many states in the Northeast and Midwest. Adults have distinctive tan forewings with black spots and red hindwings, while nymphs are black with white spots. To prevent its spread, residents should kill any SLF they see, check vehicles and outdoor items for egg masses, and report sightings to their state's agricultural department.
