Maryland looks like it’s in for another summer of battling spotted lanternflies. Last year, I had just one plant growing outside, and I found myself constantly hunting them down—they’re sneaky and love to hide by shifting to the opposite side of a stalk or branch. They caused some damage, but thankfully I was still able to get a decent harvest.

This year, I’d really like to stay ahead of the problem. Do you have any suggestions for keeping spotted lanternflies off my plant? I’ve been thinking about covering it with some kind of screen or mesh cloth, but I’m open to any ideas that might help. Thanks in advance!

Fellow Marylander. I'm an indoor grower but them spotted lanternflies are everywhere.

I'd say the nets are worth a shot as long as the little black ones don't get in before they change.
