The Monroe County Planning Commission and the Monroe County Conservation District are collaborating on the renewal of the ACT 167 Stormwater Management Plan for Monroe County and would like your input! Why is stormwater so important? Properly managed it can feed our streams and groundwater supply with drinking water, sustain our Class A trout fisheries, and support our local recreation based economy. All Monroe county residents, watershed groups and cooperating agencies are encouraged to provide feedback. Take the quick survey here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/7BLWHYY
A bit chilly but worth it!
Join us this Friday at 10am on Zoom to learn about a family of critters not often discussed or observed ---the tiny yet tenacious weasel family! Weasels are related to fishers, otters, minks, and ferrets. They tend to keep to themselves, lurking in the forest, spending most of their time hunting for their next meal. Learn about their cool seasonal adaptations, habits, how they move and hunt, and how to avoid conflicts with any pest weasels that may visit your property (or chicken coop!) Don't "weasel" your way out of this one! Register here: https://us02web.zoom.us//tZAsde-qrjMjE9R4hOwNoFE6LC9aqrRCV
While adult Spotted Lanternflies do not survive the winter, their egg masses do. Each egg mass could contain 30-50 individuals that will hatch into nymphs in the spring. While out hiking or hunting this season, keep alert for egg masses and scrape them off using a plastic card and use rubbing alcohol or hand sanitizer to kill them. This video is great at helping you to identify and scrape. https://youtu.be/aTRr1Oc6weE
