Don’t forget to keep your eyes peeled for spotted lanternfly (SLF) nymphs this time of year.
SLF nymphs go through four stages—first, they’re black with white dots white, and then they turn black and red with white dots. Adults typically appear in late June.
If you suspect a SLF sighting in a county that they haven’t already been identified in, submit a picture to the Ohio Department of Agriculture’s Ohio Plant Pest Reporter at https://survey123.arcgis.com/.../1b36dd2cf09e4be0a79776a6... for verification.
