• General Firewood Quarantine: Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture has enacted a quarantine order for untreated firewood of any kind coming into the state. Any firewood brought into the state must be kiln dried, heat treated, fumigated, and/or USDA Certified. To protect the high quality and native character of our State Parks from exotic invasive species DCNR highly encourages all visitors to: burn/buy locally cut firewood (within 25 miles) BURN ALL firewood brought from another area. Do not leave it. Do not take it with you. Encourage friends and neighbors not to move firewood Do not remove firewood from a Spotted Lanternfly Quarantine Area.
