The Asian longhorned beetle is native to China and Korea. The beetle is thought to have entered the United States by means of untreated wooden packing crates. The beetle larvae make tunnels and feed on wood of a wide variety of trees like maple, elm, willow, and birch. Infestation by a large number of these beetles can result in the death of the trees.


Which is the best measure that the United States government can take to limit the introduction of more beetles?


Responses:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Prevent growing trees in and around shipyards.


Introduce predators of these beetles from China or Korea.


Require an inspection and treatment of all wooden packing materials before being imported.


Cut all trees that are infected or are at risk of being infested by the beetles.

My first answer would be to inspect all wooden packaging materials before being shipped, since that seems to be the way they are being transported from China and Korea to the United States.

My second answer would be to release predatory species concerning this native beetle species to evacuate or kill of the beetle community in the United States. Although, that could create more problems with more non-native species (of the United States), reasoning the first answer to be the best.

The other answers would most likely be worse, since the extermination of possibly infected trees would just kill the trees, which is something we are trying to stop from happening. If we prevent those trees from growing in/around shipyards, the species could still travel through the packaging if it is brought further onto land or use other modes of transportation. Also, the trees were already growing there in the first place, so then 'preventing' them from growing would just lead back to killing the trees that could be infested.

3. SHADE the areas where blood and tissue build up in the uterus.

4. With ARROWS show where blood and tissue leave the body if the egg is not
