Description

North Carolina’s tightening its defenses against the deadly New World Screwworm, requiring fresh vet health certs and advance permits for any warm-blooded animals entering from affected states—Texas and New Mexico. While the pest poses no food safety risk and hasn’t hit NC yet, officials urge quick reporting if spotted. Prevention is key: no old paperwork, no shortcuts, and strict deadlines to keep this tissue-eating menace out before it takes root.
