Unfortunately, our group cannot answer your question because it doesn't serve your location. Please contact your local Cooperative Extension office for assistance. A good way to find your local office is to go to https://extension.org/search/ and enter your county or parish name along with your state name. You might also use your favorite search engine and enter "cooperative extension" along with your county name.
To give you a head start, though, we can say that this is a Spotted Lanternfly nymph (juvenile), and if your state requests that sightings be sent to your state's department of agriculture, you should let them know so they can track its spread. (It's already in almost all Maryland counties.)
