    While the south and mid-west are bracing for cicadas this summer, spotted lantern flies are coming back to the Philadelphia area.

    Lantern flies are expected to hatch throughout the area in May and June, according to Cornell University.

    The insects can be kept away by inspecting things like firewood, furniture, and vehicles for any egg masses and scrapping them off.
