Spotted Lanternfly inCherry Hill, NJSPOTTED LANTERNFLY GUIDE
Camden County confirmed SLF in 2019, and Cherry Hill — South Jersey's largest suburban township with 72,000 residents — confirmed heavy establishment by 2020. Adjacent to Philadelphia via I-676 and I-76, Cherry Hill sits squarely in the Delaware River Gateway zone where Pennsylvania's massive SLF population has continuously reintroduced the pest into South Jersey. The I-295/Route 38 commercial corridor is a primary vehicle-based spread vector through the township, and Cherry Hill Mall's extensive parking lot ornamental trees and landscaping margins harbor significant SLF populations. Cooper River Park's riparian corridor provides natural Tree of Heaven habitat connecting Cherry Hill to neighboring Camden's established infestation zone.

Tree of Heaven in Cherry Hill, NJ
Cherry Hill Mall's extensive parking lot ornamental trees and landscaping buffer zones harbor Tree of Heaven in disturbed margins — a prime SLF establishment zone with high vehicle traffic concentrating egg mass dispersal throughout the township's commercial core. The I-295 and Route 38 corridor margins have established TOH populations connecting Cherry Hill to Camden County's broader infestation zone. Cooper River Park's riparian corridor provides natural SLF habitat linking Cherry Hill directly to adjacent Camden city's heavy infestation. Philadelphia metro access via I-676 and I-76 brings continuous SLF pressure from one of the most heavily infested urban cores in the United States.
