Ray Shipley

Ray Shipley Is there any new insecticides for this threat?

So with new growing style apple production has there been any study on those tree impact?

Somebody has their audio on and needs to mute.

what are safe ways to eradicate these invasive insects? Also, would it be timely to kill them in the egg stage?

Once they are identified in a locale is it inevitable that infestation will occur???

The management strategy recommended by Penn State extension is to remove 90% of Tree of Heaven (focusing on female trees) and applying systemic insecticide on the remaining 10% of Tree of Heaven to kill SLF upon feeding (focusing on males), can you please speak to how such a resource intensive strategy can be rolled out?

How long is the adult?

The egg masses seem to be similar to gypsy moth. Could they be brushed off in the winter and would this kill them.

Here is a picture from this summer in PA

how big are the egg masses?

What is the field life of bug barrier? How often does it have to be replaced?

What is the size range of the egg mass?

You will find many answers to your questions at the Penn State SLF page. https://extension.psu.edu/spotted-lanternfly

Somebody has background noise

Could this slide show be shared for us (as a link would be preferable) to distribute to our Lake Associations and membership for lookouts...

Agreed, we have a lot of groups who need to share this info

We can make the presentation and the recorded webinar available on the fingerlakesinvasives.org website

Thank you Hilary

This one is a great example

Will there be more specific discussion on economic impacts for local food production?

I've heard they really like laying eggs on rusty objects. any truth to this?

How do you tell SLF egg mass from gypsy moth egg mass?

Kathy Lewis, gypsy moth egg mass are kind of fuzzy. SLF are more clayey or dry looking. Also a different color.

For those of you representing lake associations or groups with a newsletter, i am happy to write something up to include in your publication. Email me with word count and timeframe for this information to mosher@hws.edu. We (NYSDAM, NYSIPM, CCE) have a lot of resources and pictures if you want them instead

What type of lure is being used in the traps?

What is the approximate size of the grid?

1 square km

Thank you!

spottedlanternfly@agriculture.ny.gov

If in Canada, you would you suggest sending to CFIA?

Egg masses- take a picture and GPS point (may be on your picture) report the egg mass but please leave the egg mass for further confirmation

Would you recommend marking with flagging tape as well?

Do they have natural predators?

Are you using the traps to assess population to help eradicate insects?

Sorry, I mean are you using the traps to assess population OR to help eradicate insects?

Ray Shipley Penn State has developed a bioinsecticide. is it being used in NY?

Hannah Coppola, spiders, praying mantis eat them but not enough for control.

Good question Hannah?? ANY NATURAL PREDATORS???

Will the coordination with iMap include plotting Tree of Heaven clusters?

Does SLF actually kill the plants it feeds on or is the issue just the honeydew and smut issue?

Yes, we will cover TOH mapping in the next part of this webinar

Do you think they’ll settle here, or will they pass through?

Shoshe, we are definitely in their habitat area. They will thrive here.

Why!!!

For Tree of heaven, is submitting pictures of the leaf scar more helpful than pictures of the leaves or bark. When possible of course (some trees are very tall).

That was great Jennifer...thanks.

Finger Lakes PRISM is also on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram and we have a trail survey group and macrophyte survey group if you are interested, contact me! mosher@hws.edu

Excellent Presentations

For Abby's question - tree-of-heaven leaves are most distinctive, especially when clear enough to see the leaflet shapes. In the winter, the leaf scars and bark together is great (perhaps hold the twig against the bark to take the photo). Always check the photo to make sure the object is in focus!

Mitch and I will stay on the webinar after the presentations in case you need tech support!

You can also email the iMap helpdesk: iMapInvasives@dec.ny.gov

When I submit an observation to iMap it does not let me or my coworkers select our organization (CC Enviornement & Planning). It says we are all members/admins but will not let us select it from the organizations tab when we try to submit a record.

Will this program be posted too?

You may need to update the organization list in your app. Go to Preferences, the select "Retrieve iMap Lists"
