Egg Mass Survey Update
The Forestry Division will not be conducting a gypsy moth egg mass survey in 2011. Forestry staff did observe some life stages of gypsy moth this year, but very few. No citizens reported any gypsy moth observations. The timing of the spring rains facilitated the release of the spores of the gypsy moth pathogen that has been established by Forestry, county and state agencies.
If citizens do observe or suspect gypsy moth to be present, it is important that they report it to the Forestry Division at 248-656-4673.
