Invasive Box Tree Moth Confirmed in Lapeer County, Michigan

Suspected cases can be reported online at Michigan.gov/ReportBTM

The Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development is addressing the detection of box tree moth (Cydalima perspectalis) in Lapeer County recently reported by the United States Department of Agriculture. Although this invasive pest is not a threat to Michigan’s natural resources, it can lead to significant defoliation and death of ornamental boxwood.

The new population of box tree moth was discovered through monitoring efforts in collaboration with the USDA. MDARD has been conducting statewide trapping for the pest, while the USDA has focused on trapping around the perimeter of the other 12 counties currently under quarantine to track the spread of this pest.

“These surveying and trapping efforts play a significant role in helping monitor and slow the spread of box tree moth within our state,” said Steve Carlson, MDARD’s Pesticide and Plant Pest Management Division Director. “We’re continuing to work closely with Michigan’s horticulture industry to ensure the safe trade of plant materials and minimize the impact on nurseries, greenhouses, and retailers both inside and outside of the quarantined area.”

In 2023, MDARD implemented a box tree moth interior quarantine, which now encompasses 12 counties in Southeastern Michigan: Clinton, Eaton, Ingham, Jackson Lenawee, Livingston, Macomb, Monroe, Oakland, St. Clair, Washtenaw, and Wayne. MDARD is currently working to update the quarantine to include Lapeer County, which would make it the 13th county impacted by BTM. Read more

NSSF Releases 2024 Congressional Report Card

WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, released its 2024 Congressional Report Card, grading sitting U.S. Representatives and U.S. Senators on key legislation that is of critical importance to the firearm industry, the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens and America’s hunters and recreational target shooters. Five U.S. House of Representatives were not graded due to special elections to fill vacancies, resulting in the new Members having an insufficient voting and co-sponsorship record for grading.

“This report card will be critical for voters to do their research as we head into the final stretch towards the November elections just six weeks from now. NSSF’s 2024 Congressional Report Card tells voters exactly where their lawmakers stand on issues including defending the firearm industry’s ability to engage in the lawful commerce of firearms and ammunition and safeguarding the Second Amendment rights of customers, as well as promoting hunting and recreational target shooting – America’s greatest outdoor pastimes,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President and General Counsel. “This nonpartisan report card reflects the level of support of each lawmaker on firearm industry priority legislation during the 118th Congress, between 2023 and 2024. These grades indicate their public voting record as well as their sponsorship and co-sponsorship of key legislation, their work on committees, letters signed to support firearm industry issues and their overall leadership in championing our industry.”

NSSF awarded 29 U.S. Senators and 123 U.S. Representatives the rating of “A+.” Of those, 8 Senators and 24 House Members attained the new NSSF distinction of being named to the Dean’s List. To earn this special recognition, members needed to have a 100-percent voting and co-sponsorship record. Read more
