The Spongy Moth is an invasive caterpillar that can defoliate hundreds of tree species across the Eastern United States.

Populations are kept in check by a fungus (Entomophaga maimaiga), which serves as a biological control by killing adult caterpillars. However, extended dry spells prevent the fungus from growing, which subsequently allows spongy moth populations to balloon.

Early fall is the best time to overseed. Set yourself up for successful germination by:

- Testing the pH of your soil before adding amendments
- Targeting summer weeds and crabgrass before they develop seed heads.
- Choosing a grass seed that's suitable for your climate
- Beginning when soil temperatures are between 50°F to 65°F

A few rainy days isn't enough for full drought recovery. It can take weeks or even months of consistent rainfall before conditions truly improve.

The timeline can also be affected by:
- Regional climate patterns
- Temperature
- Soil moisture conditions
- Groundwater and reservoir levels

When temperatures are high and rainfall is limited, the chances of an extended drought increase with each passing day.
