Where should citizens report jumping worm sightings?

There is no single location collecting jumping worm reports in Massachusetts, as they are now considered to be widespread throughout the state. However, reports can be submitted toĀ EDDMapS, which will map the reports and maintain publicly available information (this is the reporting page recommended by the MA Dept. of Agricultural Resources for jumping worm reports coming from Massachusetts). Those in other states may also send reports toĀ EDDMapS, or to eitherĀ iMapInvasivesĀ orĀ iNaturalist. Other state departments of agriculture may be collecting these reports; however, the MA Dept. of Agricultural Resources is not at this time.
