North Carolina’s agriculture department is sounding the alarm on the spotted lanternfly — an invasive pest spreading across counties like Forsyth, Guilford, and Davidson. First spotted in the U.S. in 2014, these bugs have now reached 18 states and are drawn to the state’s agriculture and invasive tree of heaven. They excrete sticky sap that turns into black mold, crippling crops — especially grapes — and even damaging homes. Officials urge everyone to act: spot egg masses on fences or pallets and scrape them, squash the bugs on sight, and contact your county extension office for bigger infestations. If you spot one outside these hotspots, report it — containment is key before this menace spreads further. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
