It's beautiful, it's bold-and it's bad news for North Carolina. The spotted lanternfly, first detected in our state in 2022, may look flashy with its bright wings, but behind the showgirl exterior lies a destructive pest that threatens vineyards, orchards, landscape plants, and forests. It is spreading quickly, leaving behind plant damage, sticky messes, and big headaches for landowners. Join us to learn the full story of the spotted lanternfly - its life cycle, the damage it causes, and, most importantly, what YOU can do about it.
