| On this one tree limb are both exposed spotted lanternfly eggs as well as egg masses. In autumn, spotted lanternflies will lay eggs that will hatch in spring. Female spotted lanternflies secrete a protective white, waxy substance over their eggs, creating a mass that can contain thirty to fifty eggs. The white secretion will eventually dry, becoming darker in color. Here, one can clearly see eggs and egg masses at different stages.
