Wisconsin officials urge
people not to open any mysterious packages of seeds from China.
The Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection says they are working with USDA’s Animal and Plant Inspection Service to investigate seed shipments to prevent the spread of invasive species.
DATCP officials urge people not
to open the sealed packages, and not to plant or throw away the seeds. People are also encouraged to save the
packaging and mailing labels used to send the seeds so investigators can
attempt to trace the shipments. Wisconsin
has an online reporting form to let officials know about the seeds.
