High-powered vacuums offered to Westchester municipalities in battle against spotted lanternflies
Westchester County is now loaning municipalities vacuums to catch spotted lanternflies.
Earlier this year, the county's Parks Department got high-powered vacuums to eliminate lanternflies. There are 10 available specifically to loan.
Anyone who works for a Westchester municipality can request them through a form on a first come, first served basis.
The county will collect data to track the exact locations of the bugs.
