State Funds Fight Gypsy Moth Invasion This Spring
The Hartford Courant notes an unusually strong gypsy moth outbreak is expected this spring across the Northeast. New insecticides, though pricier than DDT, aim to prevent wildlife loss from over spraying. About half the cost of moth larvae control will be covered by the state under a new law, with $26,550 allocated for tree spraying across state lands and 28 communities. Over 20 years, annual state costs average around $4,000, making the gypsy moth a major public expense. Moths hatch in spring after overwintering, with caterpillars voraciously defoliating trees, while adult moths do not eat leaves. Each egg cluster can contain 5,000 larvae.
