Wisconsin DATCP has published spongy moth aerial treatment plans for 2024, aiming to prevent the spread of high moth populations in western Wisconsin, where they could damage timber, nursery, and tourism industries. Treatment will occur in nine counties from May to July using low-flying planes. Property owners are urged to assess trees for egg masses and determine if control measures are needed.
