Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0080-06-19-.01 - DETERMINATION OF PROBLEM AND ESTABLISHMENT OF QUARANTINE
(1) It has been determined that the
destructive insect pests known as the black imported fire ant
Solenopsis richteri Forel, the red imported fire ant
Solenopsis invicta Buren, as well as the hybrid of these two
species have been found in Tennessee, as well as in other states. These pests
can be extremely injurious to Tennessee cultivated crops and man and other
animals; therefore, it would be in the best interest of man and agriculture in
Tennessee that a quarantine be established against these pests.
(2) Due to the above determination, a
quarantine against the above defined pests is hereby established.
