Flighted Spongy Moth Complex
May to October
The Flighted Spongy Moth Complex (FSMC) season is upon us, starting from mid-May. This group of exotic pests, native to Asia, poses a significant threat to trees and shrubs, leading to the decline of forests, orchards, and landscapes if not properly managed. What does this mean for you? To protect the environment and ensure smooth operations, extra checks and strict compliance with FSMC regulations will be required in regulated areas. This will help to avoid rerouting, port delays, and other potential impacts.
