Be Alert: The Spotted Lantern Fly is a Serious Threat

First detected in Virginia in 2018, the spotted lanternfly, originally from China, has rapidly spread across the Shenandoah Valley and parts of the Piedmont. This invasive species poses a significant threat to fruit crops, including grapes, peaches, and hops, as well as to various trees like pine, walnut, maple, and oak. Notably, its favored host is the tree-of-heaven (Ailanthus altissima), another invasive species.
