Maine Forest Service. Winter moth was first recorded in Nova Scotia in the 1930s and then in the Pacific Northwest in the 1970's. It showed up in eastern Massachusetts in the early 2000's and has since spread into coastal Maine from Kittery to Bar Harbor. Fill out the Tree Ailment Form to help us gather information about the distribution of these moths across Maine (or use survey for any tree health or forest pest issues you're observing).
