Spotted lanternflies, also known as lycorma delicatula, are unruly party crashers. They know how to turn a serene picnic into a bug-filled buffet. Definitely not the companions you’d want while enjoying a day in the breathtaking Mid-Hudson Valley region of New York, right?
Luckily, Mosquito Joe has got your back with our specialized spotted lanternfly control services in South Orange-Rockland Counties. Get in touch with us when you need help keeping these pesky plant munchers away.
When the eggs hatch, spotted lanternfly eggs resemble smeared masses of mud. These eggs begin to hatch in May all the way through June.
Nymphs: Spotted lanternflies have four different nymph stages, which take place from June to July.
As fully grown adults, spotted lanternflies start searching for mates. This occurs anytime from June to December.
Laying eggs: They mainly lay eggs at the end of the summer, but this can happen through December.
These troublemakers are no fun to have in your outdoor spaces in S. Orange-Rockland Counties. From munching on precious trees and plants to creating sticky messes with their honeydew, they can be a real pain.
From fruit trees to grape vines and various hardwoods, no plant is safe from their insatiable appetite. When spotted lanternflies feast on tree sap, it weakens the plants, which can cause long-term damage to local flora.
Sadly, the damage doesn’t stop there. Spotted lanternflies have a nasty habit of secreting a sticky substance called honeydew while they dine. As this honeydew builds up on plants and trees, it becomes a breeding ground for mold. Not only is mold bad for the plant or tree’s health, but it attracts other harmful insects.
Invasive insects like ants and wasps love the sweet honeydew. But obviously, both residents and visitors in the area would rather avoid the presence of these unwanted bugs. Mosquito Joe of S. Orange-Rockland Counties can help make that happen by treating spotted lanternflies in the early stages.

For 8 years we have been battling the mosquito. We have stayed in many beautiful evenings because of the pests. For the first time this year, after one application by Mosquito Joe, we have enjoyed every night this summer sitting on our deck. What a great service!
Mosquito Joe delivered exactly what they promised. My family and I can actually enjoy our yard and pool area comfortably.
It actually works!! I was skeptical at first. The mosquitoes are so bad here, but not since we've had this service. My neighbors also signed up because they noticed that we had no mosquitoes.
Friendly and professional staff. I have used Mosquito Joe for three years and have been able to enjoy my backyard again.
