"Welcome to the Web site for the N.C. Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. Our department serves the state in a wide variety of roles. This Web site aims to make it easy for everyone to find exactly what he or she is looking for without needing to know which division would handle the information. I hope you find this site helpful. We are continually fine-tuning it and would appreciate your feedback."
The N.C. Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services is expanding a state quarantine for the imported fire ant in a continuing effort to monitor and address this pest. With the expansion, the quarantine now includes portions or entire areas of 70 counties.
The quarantine expansion means residents and business owners in all of Currituck, Durham and Hertford counties, and portions of Alamance, Granville, Guilford, Iredell, Rutherford and Vance counties will now need to obtain a permit before moving plants, sod and related equipment into or through non-infested areas. | News Release
