Event Details:
The spotted lanternfly poses a serious threat to our trees, plants, and agriculture. If you see one, the best way to get rid of it is to squash it.
On Tuesday, July 14th at 6:00 p.m., join us at Orleans Park as we join communities across Ohio to take part in the "Big Squish." Volunteers will be mobilizing to squash spotted lanternflies and scrape any egg masses they see on host trees.
