Last day to help the National Park
Have you seen the Spotted Lantern Fly?
This is an invasive species to the Shenandoah Valley and Shenandoah National Park is collecting data.
Through the end of the day, September 30th, you can report sightings of the species to the app iNaturalist.
Snap a photo of the Spotted Lantern Fly, and report when and where you found it.
If you do not have service at that time, that is not a problem, report it when you are back in service.
The Shenandoah National Park appreciates your help with this project.
