<p>If you hate the 17 year cicada, I'm sorry to tell you about the spotted lanternfly that's coming soon to a town near you. This insect is not a fly, but a leafhopper. It sucks the juices out of trees and plants using its needle like mouth. It then covers everything in a sticky sweet mess that attracts stinging insects and sooty mold. So what can you do? We invited James Watson from the WVDA to help us out. Tune in to find out!</p>
