SAME DAY SERVICE!

New York City has a combination of tree-lined streets, urban parks, and backyard gardens, making it vulnerable to lanternfly. These invasive pests are harmful to the city’s trees, landscapes, and local agriculture as well. These pests may seem harmless, but their feeding habits can lead to weak trees, invite mold growth, and cause sticky sap buildup. The flies are an environmental concern in NYC as they feed on sap from trees like maples, black walnuts, and fruit trees – attracting other pests, leading to tree decline.

Frequently Asked Questions

+Why is lanternfly a problem in New York?

The spotted lanternfly is an invasive pest that feeds on a wide variety of plants and trees. It excretes sticky sap attracting secondary pests, weakening the tree's health and damaging ornamental and commercial landscapes.

+Are over-the-counter sprays not enough for lanternfly removal in New York?

No, over-the-counter sprays remove only visible lanternflies with difficult-to-access host trees, thereby missing out the egg masses. Retaining them can increase the chance of them reappearing without choosing a professional treatment.

+What is the duration of a complete lanternfly infestation?

The treatment usually takes a few hours, depending on the infestation severity, access to host trees, and property size. Moreover, follow-up visits may also be required weeks later for the removal of egg-mass or new season nymphs.

+Are chemicals used in pest spray safe for my family, pets, and plants?

Yes, at Optimum Pest Control, we provide eco-friendly pest control services, prioritizing minimum chemical exposure. Our treatment includes tree-safe, low-impact, and non-persistent products, following best-practice integrated pest management (IPM) protocols.

+Can lanternfly recur even after the treatment?

Yes, there are chances of lanternfly recurring even after the treatment, especially in areas with heavy vegetation or neighbouring host trees. To avoid reinfestation, our experts provide prevention tips and regular monitoring.
