The recent storms have impacted everyone, including Cincinnati Parks, our 85,000 street trees, plus all of the trees in our amazing parks. In fact, we have already received over 300 service requests for fallen trees or branches. Our crews have worked all through the night prioritizing the most urgent situations, like trees on power lines and blocking roads, to help everyone stay safe.

A huge thank you to all of our staff who continue to work long hours on clean-up efforts. We truly appreciate your dedication and hard work.

Thank you to everyone in our community for your patience and understanding as we work through the remaining requests. We appreciate your support!

You might have noticed the invasive spotted lanternfly is everywhere in Ohio. Yikes!

But how can you help slow the spread? Our three big recommendations are:
1. Don't be afraid to squish these bugs. Watch out! They jump/fly.
2. From late fall to early spring look out for egg sacks and then scrape them into soapy water.
3. Use hack-and-squirt techniques to remove the invasive tree of heaven from your property.

There is no need to continue to report findings to Cincinnai Parks.

For all the latest details on the spotted lanternfly, check out our article: https://bit.ly/4woqNt3
