They're colorful, they're pretty, and they're quick. But this insect has got to go. It's the invasive spotted lanternfly, and parts of New Jersey have been divided into quarantine zones to try to contain the bugs. Now they're popping up all across our area, even in Manhattan.
So why are they a problem? And where did they come from? And what should you do if you see one?
Lee Goldberg chats with Dr. Jessica Ware of the American Museum of Natural History on what we all have to know to stop or slow this invasive bug's spread before serious damage happens to our trees and plants. More: 7ny.tv/2ZZCfkp

I love Dr. ware! I saw her in a clip some months ago about cicadas and now on this one, she’s got such a beautiful energy to her and you can tell she’s genuinely passionate about entomology. She just seems like one of those genuinely super nice people!

If you can't reach the lantern fly, use anything like Windex to zap them & they fall and you can kill them. They tend to jump so a spray of even hair spray will temporarily disable them so you can kill them.

@angc.8810 2 года назад

They've been here in Port Jefferson Long Island for months. The woods here are invested with them. You think we would've got a warning. Aside of this the stink bug problem is out of control.

How to kill them.. 1. Grab a spray bottle that shoots a straight stream. 2. Fill it 1/5 with dishwashing soap 3. One spoon of some type of food oil (optional) 4. Fill the rest with water 4. Spray em and watch em instantly die!

@lostinpa-dadenduro7555 2 года назад

They eat crops too. They from Chynuh. Like Asian carp, snakehead fish, Murder hornets, Lionfish, the cough. Amazing coincidences.

@AlphaPoe Год назад

People stomping them individually won’t make a dent. The adults will die in winter but their egg masses will survive. Professional exterminators in every infested area are needed or spring and summer of 2023 will be a nightmare and huge devastation to trees and landscapes.

Throughout history man has conquered land and that includes the indians conquering each other. And conquering land still exists today. Russia recently conquered Crimea under Obama and China is threatening to conquer Taiwan. It's all part of the history of us.
