Sometimes chemicals have to be used for invasive species with no predators and no organic treatments. This is how I am spraying the spotted lanternfly nymphs and young. Early targeted spraying.
Thanks so much for your support! Cheers & Thanks, Gary!

@THERUSTEDGARDEN
I have Trees of Heaven ! Giant weeds. I’ve cut them down they come back all in my grass! Hate these trees, I haven’t seen the flies in CA thank goodness. Ty
I'm thinking about buying praying mantis eggs cases to release them in my garden.
If it ever quits raining, I might be able to fight the insects and save my garden.
Thankfully I have not seen those around here in west central Ohio.
Beware that when you cut down your tree of heaven, you must poison the root system. It will put out hundreds of runners and new sprouts as a defense. The SLF are horrible and so destructive.
Ive seen these nymphs everywhere in Baltimore….
It's unbelievable that lantern flies are drawn to tree of heaven, but they destroy gardens. It's a set up!🧐
I had the nymphs a few years ago and luckily haven’t seen them since. In Ohio (Cleveland). Thanks Gary
I don’t have a tree of heaven, but they appeared in my garden last year. I am able to reach them, so I cup my hand around (so they can’t jump away) and scoop them into an old peanut jar filled with soapy water. They were on all my plants, but the anise hyssop especially. Do your research to see what their eggs look like and how to dispose of them. Good luck
you can easily go out and vacuum them up with a handheld vacuum. Takes only slightly longer than spraying chemicals. I do this on my grapes each year and its so simple.
I just saw one today and wondered what it was. We had so many adults last year but didn't know what the nymphs looked like. This is very helpful. Thank you, Gary
You can keep them in your yard Gary 100😂
Thank you MD for caring enough about others to put this information out. ❤️
use dawn soap😎😎😎
I used to see them around here but not so much lately. Hopefully they've moved on.
You mention that you will be “removing” some of your tree of heaven trees. Please don’t just cut them down. They’ll sprout new trees from their roots. There are several methods including the hack and squirt technique which worked best for us.
Hi Gary, just wanted to tell you I tried your peppermint oil/castile soap/& water spray out of desperation on Lanternfly nymphs and it worked!!! I spray it on them and try to soak them down wherever I see groups of them congregating on stems when the pollinators are not around. After Lanternfly's are sprayed they may hop around for a minute or more but after a few moments they die, sometimes flipping on their back with legs flailing. I can't stress how much I absolutely HATE doing that…to any living thing…watching the Lanternfly's suffer makes me feel very bad 😔. Most recently discovered them on my, blueberries & black raspberries, now after seeing your video I'll be checking my apple tree again. I am desperate to protect my stuff!! I also use your peppermint spray on the aphids attacking the tips of my cherry tree, etc.
Same problem on my grapes here in Maryla d also. I've been throwing Diotomateous Earth powder on them for the past few days and studying the effects. I've sprayed stink bugs with dish soap and water and had good results, so I'll try that next, then vinegar then Seven. Last year was the first season where I enjoyed my own grapes, but this year my excitement for 10 times the grape clusters than last year is tempered by this new peat infestation.
