Gypsy moth damage exceeds expectations in Maryland counties
Maryland Department of Agriculture officials report defoliation from gypsy moths is greater than expected in Frederick and Washington counties. 640 acres of moderate and 372 acres of heavy damage mapped in Frederick, with additional heavy damage along the Washington County border. Puffinberger notes windborne larva from Pennsylvania contributed to surprising losses, and emphasizes spraying costs and area coverage, plus future assessments this winter.
