U.S. Customs agents in Los Angeles stumbled upon a bizarre shipment: Tic Tacs packed with live bugs instead of mints. No permits, no warning—just ants lurking inside the orange-flavored containers. Agriculture specialists are now scrambling to identify the pests and trace their origin, as this could signal a bigger threat to U.S. agriculture. The Tic Tac maker, Ferrero Group, hasn’t commented yet, but CBP’s mission remains clear: stop invasive species before they spread.
