Answered for Speedway, Marion County.
Confirmed in Indiana and spreading, though not yet the everyday problem it is further east. Worth reporting a sighting to the state rather than just treating it. In Speedway, no public street-tree inventory has been published for Speedway, so species counts are UNVERIFIED. Because the residential core finished building out by the mid-1950s and has barely been rebuilt since, much of the yard canopy is likely of comparable age and large enough to close over narrow streets and 40-to-50-foot lots — an inference from build-out dates, not a measured finding. The exception is Main Street, where a town streetscape reconstruction installed all-new landscaping, so those trees are recent. Damages rather than kills most trees, but the honeydew and mould make a yard unusable.

Grey egg masses that look like smeared mud, sticky honeydew and black sooty mould underneath the tree.

Scrape egg masses in winter; treat nymphs in spring.
