During the late summer, these adult lanternflys mate and lay eggs. While adults do not survive the winter, the same does not hold true for their egg masses. Check for egg masses on trees, cement blocks, rocks and other hard surfaces. If you find egg masses, scrape them off using a plastic card or putty knife and then place the masses into a bag or container filled with rubbing alcohol or hand sanitizer. This is the most effective way to kill the eggs but they can also be smashed or burned. For more information visit the Penn State Extension website at https://extension.psu.edu/spotted-lanternfly

Thank you to our Friend and Dedicated Community Member Joe Saracino has been a community ambassador for Northampton Township over the decades. Though you may identify his name with State Farm Insurance, he is so much more than a picture on a company logo. Joe has embraced the community where he has worked since 1975, contributing to so many causes, charities and organizations that it is hard to name them all. As a longtime Northampton Township resident, Joe has always been committed to helping Northampton Parks and Recreation, the Senior Center, Library, Police Department, Fire Company. and Northampton Days. Whenever there was a need for support, he was always willing to give, be it with sponsorship, advertising, ideas, or his own time. Joe has been an upstanding member of the Northampton Township Business & Professional Association, a St. Mary Medical Center volunteer, member of the Marine Corp League of Richboro, an avid golfer at the Northampton Valley CC. To paraphrase the State Farm tagline, “Like a Good Neighbor, Joe Saracino has always been there.” Thank you, Joe, for your dedication to Northampton Township and best wishes on your upcoming retirement!
