U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) discovered five different pests, including two species (namely Cerambycidae, a type of beetle, and Myrmicinae, colonizing queen ants) that are known to pose a significant agriculture threats to U.S. farmland on Panama-flagged bulk carrier. The significant presence of pests onboard the vessel forced CBP to expel it from U.S. waters. Cerambycids are native to China and the Korean peninsula and were accidentally imported to the U.S. over the decades in shipping material that has led to the destruction of trees and farmland. The USDA Forest Service has spent more than a half-billion dollars to eradicate cerambycids.
