How does one spot a mass of spotted lanternfly eggs?
“They are [a] sort of white-ish grey, a little bit tan, like splotches of putty,” Abigail Natelson, public programs coordinator at Randall’s Island Park Alliance, said.
The Randall’s Island Park Alliance is holding a spotted lanternfly egg hunt on Saturday, an effort to stay ahead of the game of stopping the invasive species from spreading. The bugs were first discovered in the five boroughs in the summer of 2020.
