During the late autumn season, female spotted lanternflies will deposit clusters of eggs on trees that serve as hosts, as well as on smooth surfaces such as stones, outdoor furniture, vehicles, and structures in close proximity. The recently laid egg clusters will be covered with a grey substance resembling mud. Egg clusters that have not been fully covered, are nearing the hatching stage, or have already hatched will exhibit a segmented appearance.
