Aerial spraying of woodlands against impending outbreaks of the gypsy moth has begun across Pennsylvania.
A total of 203,569 acres at 146 sites will be sprayed through an effort led by the Bureau of Forestry in the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources.
Those sites will include 9 state forests, 9 state parks, 25 state game lands and sections of the Allegheny National Forest in 19 counties.
“As the insects emerge and begin feeding, the suppression effort will begin in early May,” said Cindy Adams Dunn, DCNR secretary. “Our recent cool, wet springs had emerged as an enemy of the gypsy moth in years past, but populations have climbed in some areas to a point where aerial spraying is needed to keep this invasive pest in check and protect the trees from defoliation.” ....

HARRISBURG The Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) Secretary Cindy Adams Dunn has announced the start of aerial spraying of state woodlands to combat gypsy moth populations poised for spring outbreaks in some sections of Pennsylvania, including state parks in Clinton, Centre and Lycoming counties.
“As the insects emerge and begin feeding, the suppression effort will begin in early May,” Dunn said. “Our recent cool, wet springs had emerged as an enemy of the gypsy moth in years past, but populations have climbed in some areas to a point where aerial spraying is needed to keep this invasive pest in check and protect the trees from defoliation.” ....

“In Pennsylvania, these destructive, invasive insects go through cycles where outbreaks occur every five to 10 years,” said DCNR Forest Health Manager Dr. Donald Eggen. “Populations had declined in years past thanks to the gypsy moth fungus disease and wet spring weather but that no longer is the case for 2021.”
The gypsy moth suppression program is conducted with the goal of preventing defoliation so that trees do not become stressed and succumb to disease, other insect pests, or drought, the DCNR said. 
Aerial spraying will be conducted by helicopter and fixed-wing aircraft.
Targeted sites are determined by surveys of egg masses and other indicators across the state indicating gypsy moth populations are increasing and have the potential to cause major defoliation. ....
