The Luzerne Conservation District, in partnership with Penn State

Extension, will be hosting a free Spotted Lanternfly Workshop at Wilkes

University’s Henry Student Center on Sept. 26th at 6:30-8pm. With the SLF

population continuing to spread throughout Luzerne County and beyond, we

wanted to provide an opportunity for residents to obtain useful information

on identifying, reporting, and controlling SLF, as well as answer any

questions they may have on the invasive pest. We’re asking that you help us

spread the word by advertising the workshop on your website, social media

outlets (feel free to share our Facebook post), etc. 

The bees are back! Beware of bees by the recycle bins! Please be sure to rinse your recyclables!
