The gypsy moth has a voracious appetite for decididhs leaves and even conifer needles which often results in the death of the trees. ( The danger is such that Northumberland Northumberland County council has called upon the Lower Trent arid the Ganaraska Region Conservation Conservation Authorities to prepare a joint battle, plan to fight the moth's devastating march westward. It is considered too late this year to do anything in the eastern section of Northumberland County an area which is already infested* by the moth. The county plan calls for a* massive and possibly a compulsory •spraying program on both private and public lands in 1987. A county committee of nine members has been organized and who have asked that the Ministry of Natural Resources make spraying compulsory. compulsory. Councillors hope that the estimated cost for Northumberland County spraying set at $35,000 would be accepted by the province of Ontario. The government spent more than $11 million trying to stop the westward ' march of the gypsy moth in 1985. The gypsy moth was introduced into the United States ,in the late •«ïi'iss : a> Orono area and as well hope to be able to promote a dance in the Village. Another item on their schedule is a conference, again to be held in Orono, with representation from the Port Hope, Port Perry, Cour- tice, Cobourg and Peterborough High schools.

The moth lives to eat states experts. One worm will consume a square foot of leaf every twenty-four hours. The moth travelled to Eastern Canada and in 1980 entered eastern Ontario where ft is .expected 1 million acres of provincial trees will v be affected. It has been reported that a healthy deciduous tree can survive five years of defoliage by the moths before it dies. Coniferous trees, it states, generally die after the first eat-over. _ Maple and Oak trees are a prime target of the moths. , The Northumberland council, is concerned over the future of the Northumberland and Ganaraska Forests which are expected to be hit by the moths in the near future. The spray used to kill the moth, an organic pesticide called Bt, is safe for life forms except moths and butterflies, states literature prepared by the Ministry of Natural Resources. .The Ganaraska Region Conservation Conservation Authority Natural Resources Advisory committee has been called to meePat which time the subject of spraying will come before the committee committee for a recommendation to the full authority.
