@MikeTreglia I think I'm going to go with tonnage, just so the measurement is completely unrelated but sounds related
English
@HealthyTreesHC metric or US tons, depending on what my other units are :-)

And... something I'm looking at in various forms seems to have short tons, us tons, and metric tons... so confusing

I think I prefer 'Squish' to 'Squash' but the message is the same.

#SpottedLanternfly has quickly become a well-known #invasive insect, due to it's quick spread and wide host range. Fall is when they lay their eggs and experts have info for you to help stop their spread. ow.ly/Ai0C50w2M4k Pic: Richard Gardner, Bugwood.org

Good news! Naturally occurring fungi – Batkoa major and Beauveria bassiana – found in soil in forests may control spotted lanternfly!

@HealthyTreesHC has been working with @Nature_KY to record and study tree health in Louisville. Great article on the importance of urban trees and the Green Heart project!

If we know how healthy our trees are we can intervene to help them before they disappear. Bigger healthier trees will provide more cooling. @HealthyTreesHC npr.org/2019/09/04/755…

Although #Asianlonghornedbeetle was recently overshadowed by more threatening invasive insects, new research reveals larvae have a broader range of host trees than adults, quietly aiding its spread.

Exciting results this week! This healthy green ash seedling mounted a defense response that killed over 90 % of the #EAB larvae that entered it. Parents of the seedling are #lingeringash trees that survived long term EAB infestation. #treebreeding works!

Beer lovers - you should be worried about #spottedlanternfly too!

Spotted lanternfly found feeding on hops today...but only 2! So far, they seem to prefer grapes.
