The species is distributed throughout East, Southeast, and South Asia (including in China, India, Malaysia, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, and Thailand).

Zhao Dongxiang et al. found that amber-yellow boards were highly effective in capturing leafhoppers indoors, outperforming other colors such as bright green, snow white, and orange.

[12] Insect lamps, particularly frequency-vibration (electric shock) and suction types, have gained popularity in tea plantations for their ability to control a wide range of pests.

[14] These integrated pest management strategies not only help control leafhopper populations but also align with sustainable agricultural practices, reducing the environmental impact of tea cultivation.

In tea plantations with well-maintained ecological balance, spiders play a significant role in controlling J. formosana populations, exhibiting a notable follow-effect in response to leafhopper densities.

[15] During peak leafhopper outbreaks, spraying tea plantations with Beauveria bassiana formulations in moderately humid conditions can achieve approximately 60% control effectiveness.
