Canadian Food Inspection Agency warns of spotted lanternfly pest nears border

Canadian Food Inspection Agency is asking Canadians to keep an eye out for an invasive bug that could spell disaster for the country’s wineries and fruit growers.The spotted lanternfly is a pest native to China that has been making inroads in the United States since 2014.Thus far, the small grey-and-red insect with spotted wings has not been found alive in Canada. Avian flu outbreaks confirmed on B.C., Alberta farms after brief pause in cases But in early September, hundreds of adults were found in a residential area in Buffalo, N.Y., just 45 km away from the Canadian border.The reports set off alarms at the CFIA, which in a tweet last week asked Canadians to report any sightings of the pest on this side of the border “immediately.”The insect feeds on sap, mainly from fruit trees, and can cause serious harm to orchards and vineyards.“We’re becoming more and more concerned about the proximity to Canada, and particularly our grape-growing industries, because this is a pest that has had significant impacts on the grape and fruit industry in the United States,” said Diana Mooij, a specialist in the invasive alien species program within the CFIA.The first North American sighting of the pest was in Pennsylvania in 2014, and since then, a tracking program monitored by Cornell University has documented the pest in 14 U.S.

These 5 states could tax student loan forgiveness

Mississippi is the first state to confirm that residents there will be taxed on student loan forgiveness, and four other states could follow suit.President Biden’s student loan forgiveness plan would eliminate $10,000 in federal student loan debt for those with incomes below $125,000 a year, or households that earn less than $250,000. It would also cancel an additional $10,000 for those who received federal Pell Grants to attend college.Typically, debt forgiveness is considered taxable income under IRS tax code, but the American Rescue Plan exempts student loan forgiveness as taxable income from 2021-2025.

See the invasive Australian crawfish discovered in Texas

(Texas Parks and Wildlife Department) BROWNSVILLE, Texas - Be careful about what you're adding to your next crawfish boil as an invasive crayfish has been found in Texas.The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department says that the Australian Redclaw Crayfish showed up this year in Brownsville.Researchers first found them over the winter, and then they reappeared in July along a two-mile stretch between an apartment pond and a wetland area.This is only the second time scientists have found the crustacean in the wild in the continental U.S. "We don’t know when these invasive crayfish were first introduced or how far they have spread, but we do know they can have a negative effect on local species and biodiversity," said the department’s aquatic biologist, Archis Grubh, in a press release. "Spreading the word about this invasive species and reporting sightings to TPWD can help us better understand where it is distributed and potentially take steps to help prevent its spread."States from New York to North Carolina are issuing quarantines for the spotted lanternfly, an invasive, plant-killing pest.INVASIVE PEST READY TO SWARM AND EAT ITS WAY ACROSS AMERICAOfficials fear the newcomer would threaten the survival of native crayfish.
