In this episode we discuss a new regulation change made by USDA's Animal Plant Health and Inspection service to its plant protection and quarantine program (PPQ 256 permits). This change adds new species of insects for which permits will no longer be required if moved in the continental US. There are exceptions to this rule, but I will share a number of species names included and implications. At the conclusion of the video we will hold a live Q&A for a bit. Link to list found below: This video is not meant to serve as legal advice, but only to educate the public about changes made by the USDA and its potential implications for insect breeders and keepers. Please contact the USDA-APHIS for any specific questions you may have.
